The question is would Romney's proposed tax increase include investment income, or only earned income...Romney's tax returns for 2010 and 2011 released at midnight last night show his income for those 2 years was $42 million - $7 million went to the Mormon Church, $3 million to the IRS, and he had a Swiss bank account.
For some reason Romney still refuses to release more than 2 years of his tax returns. Why? Will they show an income greater than $21 million/year? And will pressure from Gingrich, etc. and the Dems force Romney to release more than 2 years of his tax returns?
Newt Gingrich made a strategic decision for last night's debate: act like a front-runner, and don't go into the gutter again that would make headlines today - let Romney's tax returns be the headlines today.
Newt received the endorsement of GOP unsuccessful pres nominee, former senator Fred Thompson last night, so if Newt loses the GOP nomination he too can get a job as pitch man for reverse mortgages.
