The Obama Compromise

Senator
Obama: Okay Mitt, just release 5 years of tax returns and we promise that we won't "be mean" to you for not releasing ten years of returns like any normal presidential candidate would.

Romney: Hell no!
 
Mitt looked at the tapes....I mean returns....and told Congress....I mean the press ...that there was nothing to them.

The only compromise that might come out of this entire election would be that of a compromise by millions if Mitt is elected; their welfare in general. Mitt is a hardliner with nothing to sell. His shelves are empty but he's still in front of the store barking like a carnie selling cotton candy. He's having two-for-one sales with no stock on hand. And a blind man should it.

Obama knew what he was doing when he offered a hand of amity in the form of an additional three years only. The only thing wrong is should Mitt make a deal and then find three years that don't look too bad and cough them up as a consolation prize but I really doubt he will. His problem is a hard nose and he makes a mistake by leading with that nose instead of his dukes.

It IS playing out a little like Nixon and the tapes.

Remember Nixon's strategy-

1. Release a few EDITED tapes.
2. Tell Congress that he (i.e. the Nixon White House) would TELL Congress what was in them.
3. The scandal fails to go away, so Nixon goes before the cameras and denies anything incriminating is in the tapes.
4. Nixon is finally forced (by the USSC) to release them and they blow up in his face.

Now #4 can't happen to Mitt....but the fact that it "isn't going away" and he's trying to come up with "explanations" and "Just trust me on this" rationalizations only HELPS to keep it going.

At this point a good political strategist (and many did on the Right) would say "Release the returns, take your lumps for paying a low rate, and move on"......THAT IS....unless there is stuff in there that is WORSE than just "Romney paid only 13% taxes while most Americans paid more."

Oh yeah... I failed to mention that Romney now refuses to even release a second year of tax returns.
 
Just heard the "fill-in" guy for Rush.....he was talking bout Romney telling Harry Reid "put up or shut up"


Problem....the LAST guy making a claim about Romney's taxes....is Romney. So Mitt? Put up or shut up. :)
