So back to Mitt and his 15%.  Along with his his tax rate, Romney keeps "between $8 million and $25,000 million" in a Cayman Island bank. 

He says he recieves "no tax benefit."One would have to ask then, why does he keep it there?Last night, if you knew nothing at all about the candidates and watched last night, you'd vote for Newt in a heartbeat.

And it was chicken shit for CNN to open with the ex-wife question. A disgruntled wife... please! Lucky she didn't accuse him of hitting on the kids, and by the way his two daughters by this woman would not comment, only put out a one line statement to the effect, "It was a difficult time, a difficult divorce."

Could have something to do with when Newt was married to this woman, he was earning a Congressman's salary. It was after the divorce, Newt left Congress and started earning $3,000,000/year.

Do you think Mitt Romney and his friends are laughing at the rest of us?

I suspect they are.

28% on taxable income over $85,650 to $178,650, plus

33% on taxable income over $178,650 to $388,350, plus

35% on taxable income over $388,350.

New York, Wednesday January 4, 2012:  Romney is damn lucky New Hampshire is so soon, otherwise Santorum could raise money and be competitive there.
It's the true believers (Tea Party/Evangelists) vs. a 2012 version of the Rockefeller party.
If Santorum is smart he'll concentrate on So Carolina.
This is far from over.  Regardless of how the media down plays Iowa, the result is Santorum, a Conservative with impeccable Conservative credentials, is now known to the Party primary voters who pay attention to these things.
They don't like Mitt Romney.  They don't trust Mitt Romney.  And they are not going to nominate Mitt Romney if they can help it.
