If he doesn't, he's damned.
UNLESS.... they are able to move the narrative into a place where a politicians tax returns are "not necessary for the US's assessment of a candidate", which is the only direction they can take it in.

What if Romney says "He showed me 2 years of taxes"?
Better to find out the answer beforehand and then hit him with it.

He will not be able to evade this, ever, for any reason, not since his complicity in illegal tax shelter as audit committee chairman for Marriott has come up into the light. He does cheat on his taxes....

He will look ridiculous if he claims that the president should be held to a lower standard than members of Congress are.
