As reported by the AP a few days ago:

"I have followed the law," Romney said Tuesday on Sean Hannity's radio show. "I have paid my taxes as due. I have also disclosed through all of the requirements of the government, every asset which I own, fairly and honestly, recognizing, of course, not to do so would be not only wrong but illegal and criminal."

More should be made of this. Any candidate who has to state that he or she did nothing illegal should be at a disadvantage, ipso facto.

Can you imagine if there were an audio recording of President Obama saying he'd done nothing illegal? We'd be hearing it in radio and TV ads night and day.
