Romney, don't fall into that financial records trap that Democrats are setting!

Ann Coulter; Obama's Signature Move: Unsealing Private Records  "Mitt Romney presents one enormous problem for Barack Obama's campaign: No divorce records. That's why the media are so hot to get their hands on Romney's tax records for the past 25 years. They need something to "pick through, distort and lie about" -- as the Republican candidate says.
"Obama's usual campaign method, used in 100 percent of his races, has been to pry into the private records of his opponents."
...".Let's take a romp down memory lane and review the typical Obama campaign strategy. Obama became a U.S. senator only by virtue of David Axelrod's former employer, the Chicago Tribune, ripping open the sealed divorce records of Obama's two principal opponents."  Emphasis mine, TD
In a coordinated effort, Harry Reid comes up with this sleazy trick: Reid: 'I Heard Romney Has Not Paid Taxes for Ten Years'   "Clearly, Reid’s accusation, based on a random and lone source, was the excuse the mainstream media needed to continue talking about Romney’s taxes instead of Obama’s economy."

" “Here’s a rule of thumb, if you have to follow you claim with the words, ‘I don’t know if this is true’ then shut up.” Stewart said, comparing Reid to Donald Trump."
But I disagree that Romney should release more years of Tax returns for the reasons that Ann Coulter lists above. I replaced the former video because it wouldn't play. Maybe this one will work. Maybe this one will work. 

Rick Moran writes in American Thinker: Reid doubles down on hearsay tax charges against Romney  "It used to be that members of one's own party would come down on someone making an absolutely spurious charge like this. But there is only silence from Obama and the Democrats are now in desperation mode with the economy continuing to tank and the election less than 100 days away."

Sounds like a leftist ploy.

I'd say so, but at least he's catching a lot of satirical flack from many sources, not the least of which is Rush Limbaugh. http://www.rushlimbaugh.com/daily/2012/08/02/obama_got_worst_grades_in_harvard_history_and_it_s_up_to_him_to_prove_he_didn_t
