Default Newt surges, as Romney faces offshore tax haven news

One sure way to get the press to go after you, is, when you are thought to be worth a quarter of a billion dollars and running for President for five years, refuse to release your income tax forms, say you are "unemployed just like you" to people unemployed and starving on the campaign trail, and describe $375,000 in speaking fees as "not much income".

Although it is not apparent on his financial disclosure form, Mitt Romney has millions of dollars of his personal wealth in investment funds set up in the Cayman Islands, a notorious Caribbean tax haven.
Newt - yes, Newt Gingrich - surging in South Carolina. Election in 3 days.

Gawd, I LOVE politics

Default Wait, there's more

Thursday night is another GOP Debate, on CNN. Last debate before Saturday's election.

ABC will be release clips during the day, then airing on Nightline, a new interview with Gingrich's second wife, describing in detail how he abandoned her for the affair with the intern, Calista. No new information, just going over all of it again, in detail, in public.

Wow. Powerful people really, really want Mittens the 1% as president.

so technically he is a 99%

what if you are a 99% but have a rich relative that is leaving all his millions to you...are you a 1% or 99% ?

and how much are you worth bigrun and do you need someone to leave all your $$ millions to?
