Question for presidential debate: "Mr. Romney, how can we be sure that you are not part of the 47%

of people that you derided for not paying taxes does not include yourself if you refuse to release the majority of your tax returns?"

How can he answer with without one of his "trust me" replies?

I didn't see or hear anything about it in the news. Also, wasn't more of the fund raising tape supposed to be released my Mojo this morning? I saw nothing about that, either.

6. I believe he said he'll release his 2011 returns on October 15.

Then he'll be able to say he kept his promise to release two years of tax returns. He could do that now, of course, but there is something in his 2009 returns that he knows would destroy his chances of winning the election.

and make a Very Big Deal about it. He may be a felon, he may not be, he may be a tax cheat, he may not be, but we just don't know for sure.

I don't think Rmoney is looking forward to the debates anyway. I don't see Rmoney as being a strong debator against the President.
