In Case You Missed it: Think Progress, April 23: RNC Spokeswoman: Republican Economic Platform Will Be The Bush Program, ‘Just Updated’

And how…

• Ø      Think Progress, August 25, 2011: Romney: I’d Like To Repeal Wall Street Reform 
• Ø    Boston Globe, Jan. 5, 2012: “Mitt Romney tax plan would cut taxes on rich, raise taxes on poor, analysis suggests” 
• Ø     Think Progress, Apr 5, 2012: “Romney’s current tax plan is even worse.  It cuts taxes on the wealthiest Americans another 20 percent on top of the Bush tax cuts — that’s an additional $264,000 tax cut for each and every one of the wealthiest 0.1 percent of Americans.  In total, each of the wealthiest 0.1 percent of Americans would get more than a $1.1 MILLION annual tax cut under the Romney plan. Shockingly, the poorest 20 percent of Americans would actually receive a tax increase under Romney’s plan.”
  

• Ø         Washington Post, Feb. 7, 2012: “As Massachusetts governor, Romney had an unremarkable record on jobs” : “Massachusetts was one of just four states that by the time of the financial crisis still had not recovered all the jobs they had lost during the 2001 recession. And, as Romney’s opponents have pointed out, the state ranked 47th in job creation during his term.”
