Otherwise no deal
WASHINGTON -- Rep. Nancy Pelosi was emphatic. Mitt Romney’s refusal to release more than two years of his personal tax returns, she said, makes him unfit to win confirmation as a member of the president’s Cabinet, let alone to hold the high office himself.
Sen. Harry Reid went further: Romney’s refusal to make public more of his tax records makes him unfit to be a dogcatcher.
They do not, however, think that standard of transparency should apply to them. The Democratic leaders of the Senate and the House of Representatives are among hundreds of senators and representatives from both parties who refused to release their tax records. Just 17 out of the 535 members of Congress released their most recent tax forms or provided some similar documentation of their tax liabilities in response to requests from McClatchy Newspapers over the last three months. Another 19 replied that they wouldn’t release the information, and the remainder never responded to the query.

Romney paid more in taxes than these two clowns (together) have made in their entire lives.
Our MSM is too stupid to understand the basic fairness of what you're asking for, Kaslin.
What a crock! What an outrage!!!
Between now and October 31st, most all polls will show this race a dead heat. Mostly due to Democratic oversampling of said polls.
Come the last weekend before the election, I think you'll see some very weird behavior and news reporting by these “journalists” (a-hem!).
It remains to be seen how effective the Get Out The Dead Vote (GOTDV) will be, but I'm sure the president's internals will show he's about to get walloped.
What happens on election day and the immediate aftermath will be verrrrr-ry interesting.
It should be obvious to anyone with more than two brain cells to rub together - these guys don't even bother to hide their Marxist/fascist leanings any more. Buttressing that is the fact that over the past 3+ years a distinguishing hallmark of this administration has been it's lawlessness.
I'm not saying anything untoward will happen. What I am saying is the whole thing bears careful watching.
Very careful watching, in fact.

I don’t WANT 0bama et al to let this go away. This is a failing argument. It may not seem like it today, but our brains are being hijacked by media spin. People will get bored with it. Gradually, it will become clear that the “tax return” gambit is a distraction from the dismal failure of 0bama’s economic improvement efforts, especially in light of his Roanoke speech. 0bama has not met with his “Jobs” council for SIX MONTHS. He has done NOTHING they have suggested. This is what 0bama’s “laser-like” focus on jobs is. Romney’s challenge is to bring these aspects to light. 0bama puts together his Simpson-Boles deal and ignores the findings. The tax return issue is today. 0bama’s obsession with denigrating the individual initiative of Americans is PERMANENT. And you can tell this was a misstep because it’s not being covered and nobody on the left is asking questions. Seize it and shove it down his throat is what I say. Anything else is defensive.
Today this may seem “oh look” but it’s nothing but a shiny object designed to divert attention from reality. To make people who do not already realize that this is a diversion is Romney’s task.
