What’s up?

The MBF will descend soon and point out that Kerry paid a lower rate than Romney and even Bush.

But this is all about the point of view of the 2012 campaign, and Romney comes across as someone who is happy to take advantages of the tax breaks and tax rates available to the upper 1% and does not present the image or message of wanting to reform them to the benefit of the rest of us wage-earning slobs.

And that is going to be his Achilles’ heel: he is not the sort of person we want to have in charge of tax policy in our nation.
