WASHINGTON -- Democrats have entered the go-for-the-jugular stage of the presidential race, with President Barack Obama's campaign, the Democratic National Committee and an allied opposition research group all releasing videos today attacking Mitt Romney for his refusal to release more tax returns.
The videos are distinct. The Obama campaign clip will air on television in Pennsylvania, where Mitt Romney is campaigning today. The DNC's version craftily uses Sarah Palin to suggest that John McCain was so nervous about Romney's taxes that he made a historic roll of the dice with his running mate pick in 2008. The video put together by America Bridge 21st Century is a sharp edit job of all the prominent GOP officials and pundits who have begun groaning about Romney's handling of the matter.
All three videos hit at the same theme: Romney's obstinacy on tax returns has become a crippling problem for his campaign and one that Democrats are intent on compounding. Romney has released his completed return for 2010 and his estimated return for 2011, showing an effective 2010 tax rate of 13.9 percent and financial accounts in Switzerland, Bermuda and the Cayman Islands.
"Until he releases additional years of tax returns, the American people won't know why he kept his finances offshore in the Cayman Islands and set up a shell corporation in Bermuda," emailed Ben LaBolt, Obama's campaign press secretary. "Romney would be the first nominee in decades to release only one full year of tax returns. He recently said that his campaign has “put out as much as we’re going to put out” -– which makes you wonder: What is Mitt Romney hiding?"

Obama's Campaign is doing exactly what it needs to do. Tell the truth and destroy this guy, cause he would destroy us.
It is that simple.
= new reply since forum marked as read
on what would amount to a total gamble? Seriously?
Just sayin'...
. . . and they're going to let the details spill out one devastating dribble after another from now until the election! 
And it will continue..people in "real life" will question him, till he releases the info, withdraws from the race, or looses the election.
After that last possibility, then no one will care. He will have lost because he was hiding something
It really ain't rocket science...is it???
He said that it absolutely did not pass over Romney because of anything in Romney's tax returns, and called such a suggestion "disgraceful." He then went on to say the reason he picked Palin over Romney was that Palin "was the better candidate."
You just can't make this stuff up!
