seemed only a matter of time before Romney would buckle to pressure and
release a critical mass of returns--if not the 12 years worth that his
father released when he ran for president, then at least, say, five or

of his taxes--it's possible he participated in an IRS amnesty program
for secret foreign bank accounts; it's more possible he gamed the system
to avoid taxes on his huge retirement account and his sons' $100
million trust fund, or that he paid very, very low rates these past
