I’m no fan of Romney, but he has been a private citizen for 6 years. Why SHOULD he make his tax returns public? That might be the dumbest thing I’ve ever heard.
Romney should offer to reveal his tax returns in exchange for Obama’s college and law school transcripts

Mitt Romney has been running for public office for 6 years. In the mean time he has had no visible means of support. So how does he do it? Inquiring minds want to know!
I may be grossly mistaken, but I believe it's standard operating procedure for Presidential candidates to release their tax returns. It's not required; it's just done.
That's how we know that Al Gore barely made any charitable contributions, or that Bill Clinton took charitable deductions for donated used underwear and running shoes. I don't know that all candidates at this stage release theirs, but Obama releases his and you can bet a refusal by Romney to release his if he is the Republican nominee (I just threw up a little in my mouth) will be seized upon by the Obama camp.
And the media will jump on it - even though they don't care that Bill Clinton wouldn't release his medical reports, or that Obama won't release his college and law school transcripts.
They will make it look as if Romney has something to hide.
