I'm just askin', how did it possibly happen that Mittens released his tax info on Obama's SOTU day?

Sheer stupidity?

Or some strange Republican strategy I can't figure out?

It just seems too good to be true.

1. Well - I think they calculated it would get less attention on the day that

belongs to President Obama - but it is backfiring because it is so rude - all things considered, including his bumbling stances about it.

He MADE 58 000 dollars a day! while he said things like "I, too, am unemployed and I, too, have worried about pink slips"
Let the American people wrap their brains around that and I believe it will be the straw that broke any possible left over chance of him being electable.

I honestly believe his Tax issues and his income issues at a time when we have a laser sharp focus on the one percent, and come at a time when people understand about the Cayman islands and Swiss bank accounts will be insurmountable in the America of today.

Besides, President Obama IMO will take this dog and make it hunt, TONIGHT!

2. That's right. They messed up.

They thought it would burry it. It has only amplified and magnified it. I heard about it twice during the 20 minute ride home on the radio and then again as soon as I turned on the teevee.

5. That would make a good political ad.

Making $58,000 a day while saying things like "I, too, am unemployed and I, too, have worried about pink slips".

3. Yes. Sheer stupidity. n/t

4. Geeze Newt made him do it

Simple really.

6. LOL. Rachel Maddow and Lawrence O'Donnell talking about just this now on MSNBC.

O'Donnell said Obama was LUCKY.

Perhaps so.

But Mitt was truly stupid.

7. why did he say, "I like firing people?"

Because he brings tone deafness, arrogance, smugness and stupidity to staggering levels.
