That if "this" issue doesn't have legs then RMoney will be forced to show his tax returns to refute them.

That will open up a new can of worms for Mr. "class warfare" as people start scouring his returns for any improprieties.

When someone is running for the highest political office in the country he/she should be subject to vigorous scrutiny. We, the voters, have a right to know as much as we can about this candidate.

Speeches, ads, debates give you only one side of the candidate. Analysis based on tax returns, business activities, etc. are much more objective about the person's character (or maybe ability to hide), experience, etc.
