Mitt Romney should release his tax returns

  1. It's a crime to all fair minded people. Don't bitch about me not paying enough while you pay nothing is exactly what Romney should be saying to Team Obama. That alone would get my vote. Tell'em like it is. Hit hard and hit often.

  3. No it's not. He can only lose votes by being a mealy mouthed pussy. His base will be fired up everytime he attacks and Indies will say, now there's a man who tells it like it is, I can support that. Who cares if he pisses off the left. He's not getting their vote anyway.

    Fortunately, he can't gain votes this way, either.

  7. That was kid glove stuff. Romney needs to hit him where Obama is the weakest which is failing to save the average Joe. Hit him where even the left is pissed off about it.
    Romney could easily argue that while serving as a community organizer and senator, Obama played a major role in what was the root cause of the housing bubble. Then he does nothing to make things right when he get's elected president. He abandons the very people he screwed in the first place, takes care of his Wall Street buddies and ignores the little man. Obama, friend to the rich bankers, foe to the working man.

    The only problem with that is that the economy is in fact improving, if agonizingly slowly. Could Romney do better, perhaps with some harsh layoffs and outsourcing?

    Root cause of the housing bubble, you mean the American people's penchant for gambling as a way to secure a retirement? Or do you mean Capital's desperate, in this case unethical, need for a return?

  9. That is what Mitt is trying to do,and it isn't working


    For that to work Romney has to convince people he would better at it .Thats why part of Obamas strategy is going after Bain pointing out all the little guys that get fucked by wall street guys like Mitt . Mitt has gone so far right that even pissed leftist cant wait to vote for Obama again

  10. Both, and in addition, exploiting the American Dream of home ownership to those that had no business buying a home.
