Jon Stewart

During a series of interviews last week, Mitt Romney defended not releasing more of his tax returns by saying it would just provide fodder for President Obama’s opposition research shop.

“You can’t release your returns, because if you do, the Democrats will be mean to you,” Stewart said. “I see your concern.”

So are Democrats looking to make something out of nothing by harping on Romney’s lack of transparency? What would that look like, Stewart wondered. Roll the Fox News clips!
