to see how far Reid takes this.

with his 13% comment, Romney now has most of thinking America wondering what is, or isn't, in those returns. He's really taken a losing position on this one.

Irony would be if he gets audited!!

in terms of securing Ryan as the anchor that will prevent ship Romney from sailing once and for all. I dont think we can see its impact now. But soon we will........ It was to soooo easy to disprove. The Stephanie Cutter video will go viral and be picked up by MSM. It solidifies Romney as LIAR, even for those willing to give him the benefit of the doubt.

It now casts doubt about ANYTHING he says in connection with his taxes for those voters willing to let it slide for now.

And now I am convinced some reporter in the MSM will ask the two money questions on camera:

"Governor Romney, did you avail yourself of the 2009 tax amnesty?"

"Governor Romney, do you understand that not releassing your taxes denies the public the right to see whether your business dealings would have a substantive impact on your presidency and/or make you the target of bribery?"


Once that question is aksed

Romney is trying so hard to find something which will make his campaign catch fire but it just is not working.
