If you know about it, he is not very good at hiding. He could take a lesson from Obama who is much better at hiding things.

Gee Kenneth, what are you hiding that you won't answer me why you don't care about the death of hundreds of Mexican citizens and a US Border Patrol Agent? What is Obama hiding concerning his (just pick any area)?

Kenny boy, save the moronic DNC talking points for folks who are dumb enough to think this is something other than a distraction from the miserable failure of thisAdministration.

If Romney had several billion in a Swiss account , how would that affect him as President? He likely has accounts in most developed countries around the world. I don't get your point? Romney's accounts can be accessed to see if he is hiding income. They likely already have. lol Many rich people, including the Clintons have Swiss accounts. I suspect Obama will have Swiss accounts after he leaves office if not already. Now Obama...he is hiding his school records and passport records.

No way to explain Romney's Swiss Bank Account. What is he hiding? You ignorant demagogue. Any American can open a bank account in any country for any legal purpose. To assume that in doing so, one must be hiding something is ludicrous. Such a comment could only come from a control-freak leftist who believes that doing something legal must have a nefarious purpose. You know, like owning a gun must mean you want to murder someone. Have you ever heard of diversification? Not just in stocks or classes of investments, but in countries? When your country is being run into the ground by a looting bunch of elected thugs it is only prudent to get some of your wealth out of the country which could run you down to zero. Not a far-fetched idea with the current idiot in the White House issuing utopian Executive Orders left and right. But, for whatever reason Romney has a foreign bank account is none of your damned business as long as he has met all the federal requirements for doing so, including among others, filing IRS Form 90-22.1. If Romney has met his regulatory requirements per U.S. law, then he is hiding nothing. The U.S. government knows about it. Did you know that there are thousands of investments which Americans do not have access to here in the U.S. nanny state? The only way to access those investments is to have an offshore account in a country that doesn't see your money as theirs as the U.S. government does. So, pick up your ball and go back to your all-knowing Church of Idiotology and pray for more government and unlimited access to demagoguery. CF Rebel

Hill Poll: Most Feel Obama Has Changed The Country For The Worse I’m shocked, shocked I tell you, that most think Obama is ruining the country. And I bet some people are surprised by this poll. They might have listened when Obama said that he wanted to “fundamentally transform America” during his hopey changey run for the White House. And they might have paid attention to his background, policy offerings, and political experience ( The Hill) Two-thirds of likely voters say President Obama has kept his 2008 campaign promise to change America — but it’s changed for the worse, according to a sizable majority. A new poll for The Hill found 56 percent of likely voters believe Obama’s first term has transformed the nation in a negative way, compared to 35 percent who believe the country has changed for the better under his leadership. The results signal broad voter unease with the direction the nation has taken under Obama’s leadership and present a major challenge for the incumbent Democrat as he seeks reelection this fall. Amazingly, 92% of Blacks feel that the country has changed for the better, which is strange considering the unemployment rate for Blacks is 14.4%. 59% of men and 56% of women say that Obama has made America worse thanks to Obama. It’s 55% for the 18-39 bracket. Independent of voter opinions about how the country has changed, The Hill Poll found an overwhelming majority of voters — 89 percent — view the choice between Obama and Romney as important in terms of the future impact on the country. The poll doesn’t ask why, but, considering that 56% think Obama has changed America for the worse, we can figure out why
