1. I think so but I'm wondering if this is just a ruse. We'll make a big stink
about them and then there will be nothing of interest in them. What exactly are we expecting to see?

4. Then she should have released them earlier and been done with it
If I were running for office, I'd have my accountants start working as soon as my W-2 was available. Why make this a talking point if you don't need to?

15. well,
it's previous tax returns that are being asked for --2006, 2005, etc., no W-2's even needed. Just copies of what has already been filed. But yeah, not providing them leads to speculation about what's in them.

5. Can someone explain to me why they couldn't just FAKE their Returns and hide her expected incriminat
incriminating details when they release them? How would the public know the truth? Hillary is the type to hide and lie as we've all seen consistently.

18. file under, "Tax Returns, did we promise those TODAY? Gee, sorry"

http://www.blog.newsweek.com/blogs/stumper/archive/2008/03/28/expertinent-what-to-expect-from-clinton-s-long-awaited-tax-returns.aspx

UPDATE, April 4: Yesterday, Hillary Clinton spokesman Howard Wolfson told reporters on a conference call that the campaign would release Clinton's tax returns by the end of this week (though the campaign is now saying that it can't confirm whether the records will actually be released today). With the long-awaited moment possibly at hand, we here at Stumper headquarters thought it'd be useful to revisit last week's conversation with NEWSWEEK investigative reporter Mark Hosenball about what--and what not--to expect from the data dump.


ORIGINAL ITEM, March 28: Over the past few months, you've probably heard about Hillary and Bill Clinton's tax returns--but you definitely haven't seen them. Pressed by the Obama campaign to release their full filings from 2000 to 2007--the Illinois senator released his 2006 tax returns last April and posted the rest on his website Tuesday--the Clinton camp has proven recalcitrant. In recent years, candidates have released tax returns during primary season. But in February, Clinton said she wouldn't release hers until after she was the nominee, telling MSNBC that she was "a little busy right now." And although her campaign agreed earlier this month to unveil the information "on or around April 15," it has continued to be circumspect; for example, spokesman Howard Wolfson recently revised the release date to "at least three days before the Pennsylvania primary," which falls on April 22, and is now saying that they'll be out next week.
