Drip prefers the "drip,drip,drip" method

Oh how politically savvy:
Romney advisers stressed that the holdings in the Caymans — along with those in a Swiss bank account that was closed in 2010 after an investment adviser decided it could be politically embarrassing to Romney — were reported on tax returns and were not vehicles to avoid taxes.
Okay, first...this occurred to them for the first time in 2010...after he had already run for President?

Second, a Swiss bank account too? Oh Mitt and his money right next to Nazi Gold!

Third, just how bad are those prior years?

Fourth, how long does he think he'll get away with not returning those...and how does he think this is going to close the matter?

That shit may work on FoxNews but not anywhere else.

I call it his "modified limited hangout," and the strategy should work for Lord Mittens about as well as it did for Tricky Dick Nixon.

Funny that early reports said he had accounts in both Switzerland and Luxembourg (both of which have similar banking laws), but he's touting the closure of accounts in Switzerland, not both. Did all that tax evasion money simply go to Luxembourg?

Inquiring minds and all that....

Yes, keeping your holdings in Switzerland and the Caymans could not possibly have anything to do with avoiding taxes.
