USA: Damaging information

From: Justin Ruben, MoveOn.org Political Action

Dear MoveOn Member,

Last week, even prominent Republicans were calling on Mitt Romney to release his tax returns—but Romney still refuses. Just days ago, his wife told ABC, “we’ve given all you people need to know.”1

But that’s just not true.

The American people deserve to know the truth about Romney’s tax-evading schemes. We deserve to know just how much he’s profited from the loss of America’s middle class jobs. Frankly put, we deserve to know what Mitt’s hiding.

A recent poll shows that a whopping 44% of Americans believe that Romney’s hidden tax returns would “include damaging information.” 2 When an election can turn on just a few percentage points, that’s a pretty astounding number. But there hasn’t been enough pressure yet for Romney to release his returns.

And that’s where we all come in. As serious as this issue is, the sheer secrecy of Romney’s campaign is almost comical. So, to get the word out, we’re creating a shareable list with the funniest things Mitt Romney could be hiding (think David Letterman Top 10 list—except we’ll do it in five).

The funnier it is, the better it will share, so we need your clever, absurd or outlandish theory about what Mitt’s hiding to make it happen.

Submit your best answer, or see and rate others.

Ratings by MoveOn members will determine the five best theories to make a graphic we can all share with our social networks. There’s been enough news to know we’re dealing with a really tricky Mitt—and polls show that a growing number of Americans are on to his games.

If we can keep spreading the word about Romney’s secrecy now and press him to release those potentially damaging returns, we’ll have an even better chance to stop him from reaching the White House.

A funny graphic is just one way to keep this relevant online and there’s no better way to find the funny than by tapping into the wit and humor of MoveOn’s 7 million engaged members. Submit your answer today and vote for
