    No. But it may influence others.

    No, this is how the Republicans want to paint Romney so the middle class people who think they're rich will take up for poor ole Mitts when the mean ole Barack is picking on him...

    Mad? At Romney? Not even close. If I'm mad at anyone it's the people who make $250,000 and less who support Romney. It's like an Austrian Jew supporting Hitler or Chickens supporting Colonel Sanders. Why would you support someone whose success spells your own eminent demise?

    that would be a dumb strategy considering Obama himself is a multimillionaire (and his mansion in Chicago is valued at about $1.5 million, which is about the same price he bought it for back in 2006 when Bush was president)

    and just speaking of millionaires alone (less than 2 million dollar net worth in USD), there are only a few tens of millions of them on this planet of over 6 billion people

    there is no dispute that both Romney and Obama are both part of "The Rich" ... and the same is true of the vast majority of the US Senate, on both sides of the aisle

    speaking of being honest and transparent (open), why would Romney want to hide his tax returns from us, especially since like you said, all mindless Republicans will vote for him anyway, and mindless Democrats will vote against him anyway? wouldn't it be better just to be honest and transparent (open) if you were Romney? Not understanding his strategy here

    No, I don't like Mitt Romney because he is the mormon Gordon Gecko. His arrogance is disgusting, and like Red said, he has absolutely nothing in common nor can relate to 95% of Americans. And those "laws" that he follows were bought and paid for by lobbyists for fucking rich people and corporations. They are geared to benefit the super wealthy and the super wealthy only. These job creators who enjoy less taxes than ever before, that are raking in higher profits than ever before, largely because of these "laws". It's one giant cash grab. Get as much money as you can.
