Paul Ryan: 'It Would Take Me Too Long' To Explain Mitt Romney's Tax Plan (VIDEO)

[See video]

WASHINGTON -- Republican vice presidential nominee Paul Ryan promised again on Sunday that Mitt Romney’s tax plan would bring lower tax rates for all Americans while remaining revenue-neutral, although he didn’t fully explain how it would accomplish that.

The Obama campaign has blasted the Romney-Ryan ticket for not providing details on how it would give Americans such large tax breaks without growing the deficit. Ryan reiterated in an interview on "Fox News Sunday" that the plan would drop taxpayers' bills by 20 percent without costing a dime, due to closed tax loopholes, but he was short on specifics when pressed by host Chris Wallace.

“You haven’t given me the math,” Wallace said in one exchange.

“I don’t have the ... It would take me too long to go through all of the math,” Ryan responded.

Wallace played a clip of President Barack Obama mocking the Romney campaign’s lack of details on the loopholes while on the campaign trail. “No matter how many times they tell you they’re gonna start talking specifics really soon, they don’t do it,” Obama said. “And the reason is because the math doesn’t work.”

A report from the Tax Policy Center found that Romney’s tax plan would actually raise taxes on many middle-class Americans, although the Romney campaign has dismissed the report as partisan. ["Partisan" being defined as anything that doesn't support our version of altered reality]

This is brutal. And by someone who, you would think, is such a part of the Republican Party Network (a/k/a FauxNews) that he would be throwing softballs.

"No, really... Trust us... We'll tell you how it will work after you elect us... (Because if we tell you now, we'll lose...)"

(Psst... They've already lost...)

This is the strangest campaign strategy. I could see saying nothing if you are totally ahead and you want to say nothing more than God Bless America, but to refuse to define what you will do if elected is suicide IMHO.
