I wonder if the "Romney and his taxes" story will dribble away now.

[sibelian]

I'm not optimistic.

[Marr]

1. Did he release his taxes?

Then I'm guessing no.

[yardwork]

2. No. The question will not go away.

In fact, it's worse than ever. Romney has now chosen the guy who wants to take social security and Medicare away from everybody and there's still a story out there that Romney doesn't pay taxes. Not a good combination.

[kenfrequed]

3. negative synergy.

It seems likely to me that these two pieces can be spun together. The Ryan budget thbat tries to cut taxes for tax dodgers and steals from working people.

[sibelian]

10. That does seem like a good place to push from.

4. We can't let it dribble away, we need to attack on two fronts.

Rmoney's taxes and Ryand's budget.

[bigtree]

5. it's going to get even weirder for him

. . . with Ryan, likely, releasing much more of his tax records (as a congressman) than Romney has been willing. More pressure; not less.

[Frustratedlady]

6. The first question should be...how many years of tax forms did Ryan release?

If he released more than Romney, that will make Romney look even worse.

We CANNOT let the question die in the wind.

9. EXCELLENT strategy!

I like your thinking...

[RedSpartan]

7. Only if we let it.

[Justice wanted]

8. I was just wondering that. I think it is going to bring more focus on the matter due to the Ryan

Budget and how much it would benefit Romney.

[MjolnirTime]

11. Your concern is noted.

[sibelian]

13. ANSWER THE POINT.

Don't play silly games!

[Brother Buzz]

12. Controversies without a resolution remain just that, a controversy.

Tax returns and the Ryan budget, two albatrosses

[sibelian]

14. You reassure me...

My hope is that the two can be legitimately combined into a single message.
