“Mitt Romney said he will not release his tax returns if he wins the Republican nomination for president, a rare move for a candidate.

When asked if he would, Romney, in an unaired segment of an interview with MSNBC’s Chuck Todd, said that he doesn’t “intend to” release the returns.

“I doubt it. I will provide all the financial info, which is an extraordinary pile of documents which show investments and so forth,” he said, according to video provided by NBC.

When Todd pointed out that Romney had asked Sen. Ted Kennedy (D-Mass.) to release his returns during their 1994 race, Romney reiterated his remarks.

“Never say never but I don’t intend to do so,” he said.

President Obama’s campaign blasted Romney’s statement.

“By declaring that, if nominated, he would not release his income tax returns, Mitt Romney is defying a practice to which every party nominee, Republican and Democrat, has adhered for decades,” said Obama spokesman Ben LaBolt. “Even his father, George Romney, disclosed his tax returns when he ran for president in 1968. Why does Gov. Romney feel like he can play by a different set of rules? What is it that he doesn’t want the American people to...”

Romney's Former Firm Bain Advised Obama on Auto Bailout "Mitt Romney told CNBC Wednesday that he’s happy to have a debate about private equity alleged role in killing American jobs — because President Obama also forced companies to shed jobs at car dealerships during the auto bailout.

So it is somewhat ironic that Romney’s former firm, Bain & Company, was among the private consulting firms that advised the Obama auto bailout team.

And what did Bain recommend? Cutting dealerships."....

…..“The New York Times reports that Romney continues to receive a share of investment profits from Bain, although he retired almost 13 years ago.”…. Source

If Romney is smart, he will counter soetoro/obama/soebarkah with this:
‘I learn from obama, the master at playing by a different set of rules, especially anti-constitution rules. I learn from obama, the master at hinding from the American people his identity and birth status which he doesn’t want known.’

If Romney is brave enough to challenge the usurper this way, he has my vote!
