Seems last night’s drubbing in South Carolina left Mitt Romney pretty rattled. Today, speaking on Fox News Sunday, he announced he would release his tax returns after all, this coming Tuesday — when most Republicans will be busy bashing President Obama’s State of the Union address. “I think we just made a mistake in holding off as long as we did,” Romney said. “It just was a distraction.”
