Default Newt surges, as Romney faces offshore tax haven news

One sure way to get the press to go after you, is, when you are thought to be worth a quarter of a billion dollars and running for President for five years, refuse to release your income tax forms, say you are "unemployed just like you" to people unemployed and starving on the campaign trail, and describe $375,000 in speaking fees as "not much income".

Although it is not apparent on his financial disclosure form, Mitt Romney has millions of dollars of his personal wealth in investment funds set up in the Cayman Islands, a notorious Caribbean tax haven.
Newt - yes, Newt Gingrich - surging in South Carolina. Election in 3 days.

Gawd, I LOVE politics
