I really don’t have a clue why Mitt Romney doesn’t have a good answer for the MSM-fueled Bain and income-tax questions. How hard would it have been for Mitt to say last night when Brian Williams asked if there were any surprises in his tax returns that he released today:

“Yes, Brian. There are some surprises. The biggest one is that I paid every cent I owed in taxes unlike Timothy Geithner, General Electric, Tom Daschle, Al Sharpton, Charlie Rangel, Cindy Sheehan, etc. Should I continue, Brian? Maybe you can ask those who wrote the tax laws I have obeyed what they were thinking when they wrote them, because, to be honest with you, they make no sense.”

Talk about unforced errors. Can anybody answer why Mitt didn’t clean all of this up in the past four years?
