And again sending Ann Romney out to draw a line in the sand for him? Even after she made the haughty statement, "we’ve released all the information you people need to know." Really, what's his team thinking? (Or should that be, "Is his team thinking?")
Update: Hardcore Romney supporter Ed Rogers also doesn't understand Romney's tactic. "If Romney isn't going to release his tax returns, he should quit talking about them".
As many have pointed out, Romney isn't contradicting Reid. He's talking about what he paid in "taxes", not "income taxes". So Reid may be correct that there are years in which Romney paid no income taxes but still ended up paying a tax rate of roughly 13% due to his paying capital gains taxes.
ReplyDeleteIf Romney doesn't clarify what he's saying, he may as well admit that Reid's source is accurate.
