Conservatives turning against Romney on tax returns

[ajb]

If Romney is smart, now is the time to release more tax returns. It's summer, and fewer people are paying attention, and we're still a long way away from the election, with the convention and the VP nomination in between, plus whatever bad economic news is in the pipeline. Plenty of chances, in other words, to recover from whatever hit to his popularity comes from seeing his tax returns.
The longer he lets this fester, the worse it is for him, and the less time he has to recover.

As I've said, no one's going to give a damn how much money Mitt made in 2006 or whatever.  All anyone cares about is "the economy, stupid".

However, if this or any other silly sideshow will prevent Mitt from getting the GOP nomination, I'm all for it.

Clearly, the Romney campaign thinks somebody might give a damn.
