At this point, some jeering could be heard, as Romney concluded, When I have our taxes ready for this year, Ill release them.
After moving on to Rick Santorum (whose taxes are on his computer at home), King came back to Romney to ask him if he would follow his fathers example, and release 12 years worth of returns.
Maybe. Romney said, with an uncomfortable laugh. I dont know how many years Ill release. Ill take a look at what our documents are.
His response was met with loud jeers from the crowd. Romney is wrong on this. His old tax returns will continue to be a death of a thousand cuts, and he ought to take Chris Christies advice, and put them out now.

OP
Mitt's taking an untenable position. He looks like he's hiding dirty laundry. Newt skewered him. nt

Its time for the wealthy to understand their free ride is about over.

it is just at the rest stop along the trickle up economic interstate. The day after the general election, it will be totally business as usual, or something worse.
