Gingrich and Romney need to release tax returns from previous years, not just 2010

Gingrich tax return out, but much remains unseen

<...>

Gingrich's release of one year's tax return, while less forthcoming than the multiple-year tax forms released by some candidates in past campaigns, is sure to win him political points given Romney's stance. But the document itself is not especially illuminating.

"We can't see behind Gingrich Holdings or Gingrich Productions to see where that money is coming from," said Daniel Berman, a tax professor for Boston University who worked in Washington for decades.

A spokesman for Gingrich did not return requests for comment.

In a bit of backstage political theater, Gingrich issued his 2010 return during a Republican debate in South Carolina two days before the state's primary. Gingrich's pounding on the issue may be fueling his boost in polls before the vote there.

Romney To Release Tax Returns This Tuesday | On Fox News Sunday this morning, Mitt Romney announced that his campaign will release his 2010 tax returns on Tuesday, as well as an “estimate” of his 2011 tax returns. He avoided offering the returns from any years prior but explained that all the investments and taxes were paid in the United States and “you’ll see it’s a substantial amount.” This is the third stance Romney has taken on his tax returns. He first refused to release anything, then said he would release some returns in April if he wins the nomination.

5. this is their "birth certificate" moment they need to be pressed daily!

No short form, no acountant's statement, the appropriate IRS forms with totals, and signatures of the candidate's and who prepared the taxes.

Start with Bain Capital for Willard, start with Fanny and Freddie for Newtered and go forward from there.
Let's see what streets Rawmoney walked in America.
