Here are my thoughts:
Easy to brush off: -In substantial debt -Failure to donate the expected tithe to his church -Did business with Iranian government
Likely to make a dent in Rom's election performance: -that he's wealthier then he claims to be -proof that he was working for Bain for longer then he claimed -direct ties to extremely impolitic companies
Almost certainly fatal to Rom's election chances: -Evidence of offshoring and other tax evasion -having(legally) paid relatively little in taxes thanks to loopholes
Personally, I suspect it's some combination of the last two. IMO, having the next three months full of commercials that say, "Mitt Romney is worth a quarter of a billion dollars and he paid less taxes than the average McDonald's employee," would be completely and utterly devastating.
