2. "Romney-Endorser Chris Christie: ‘I Would Urge’ Romney To Release His Tax Returns"

Defying 50 years of precedent set by presidential candidates from both parties, Mitt Romney has so far refused to release his income tax returns, despite calls from the other GOP candidates to do so.

Yesterday, he admitted that his effective tax rate is probably <span>about 15 percent</span> — much lower than that of many middle-class families — and said he will probably release his returns in April if he wins the nomination, but <span>only for 2011</span>, which could allow him to hide any embarrassing tax shelters or income sources from previous years.

Now it seems even Romney’s supporters are uncomfortable with his evasiveness on his tax returns. On MSNBC’s Morning Joe today, New Jersey Gov.

But that doesn't mean their dislike for one another is greater than their total distain for Romney.            Here's what I think: Given the troubling signs of Romney's campaign, which are becoming MORE apparent every day, Romney may be *UNDOING* himself(?)           1. Multiple foot-in-mouth Verbal gaffes (i,e., "I like firing people" etc) </span>    <span>2. His disastrous interview on Faux News     3. somewhat WEAK debate performances during recent debates      4. his ongoing REFUSAL to release his income-tax information…which, btw has been the tradition started by Romney's OWN father.             Added to all that: </span><span>Newt is gonna continue pounding Romney every chance he gets. Palin is now weighing in, saying if she was in S.C. she'd vote for Newt to keep the "vetting process going." And now the word IS that </span><span>Santorum may have actually WON the Iowa Caucus:            Politico: "Did Rick Santorum Win the Iowa Caucuses, Not Mitt Romney?"           Incorrect precinct numbers from one Iowa town, and a 20-vote misallocation to Mitt Romney, casts his eight-vote victory in question—along with his claim to be the only candidate to win both Iowa and New Hampshire.  [….]            Read: http://www.thedailybeast.com/articles/2012/01/18/…</span></span></span><span><span><span></span></span> <span><span></span></span><span><span>A recount is almost complete. Everyone is awaiting the certified Iowa results which are expected to be announced by the end of this week PRIOR TO South Carolina's primary on Saturday. </span></span></span>
