WTF? So now he says obama has not raised taxes, and we don’t need for more years.........so the masses take that as: I’ll raise taxes.
WTH? Is wrong with Romney?

Romney was likely talking about the income tax rates anyway.

Since the ObamaCare taxes haven't hit yet, and hit in the 2nd term if Obama gets one, isn't it arguable the taxes haven't been raised in the first four years?

Romney doesn't have to have changed positions or even be inconsistent to say both things.

My God! Did you read the statement quoted? Not even the Obama campaign can parse that as Romney pledging to raise taxes!

He is technically correct...the taxes won’t be in affect until January, ‘13.

We’re less than a hundred days from massive scheduled tax hikes.

It is not rational.
I said how the masses will receive it.
If Romney is saying obama did not raise taxes, then it will appear that Romney is saying he is going to. obama has said over and over that Romney doesn’t care about the middle class.
There is nothing rational about the people who are supporting obama.

Does he even really want to win? I’m getting to where I doubt it.

Obama was barely in office 2 weeks before he signed the SCHIP bill into law and raised taxes on tobacco.

“I admit this, he has one thing he did not do in his first four years — he’s said he’s going to do in the next four years — which is to raise taxes.

Why is everyone having a fit, Obama is going to raise taxes, Romney won't.
