And now.

-- T minus 43 days until the presidential election in just over one week away and tell President Obama and Republican nominee Mitt Romney go head to head in their.

-- -- -- -- -- -- -- Senior vice president managing editor Fox Business is here.

Think does think the tax return is she's gonna come up next week now.

It probably well I I dare say that it's Mitt Romney -- -- release every tax return.

Since his first tax return I mean it would always come -- he's a wealthy -- and and that he's he's cities the -- Euro richest guys ever run.

Group as a party nominees so he is gonna run in two a lot of bonds second guessing how -- got that wealth whether he's paid enough taxes on that wealth.

He's he's gonna be open season on that -- but I -- I think it best it will be a deflection.

From some of the issues I'm sure Mitt Romney's gonna wanna bring us back to that is the economy but I think it's fair to -- These returns in what is paid enough -- these dumb enough.

-- -- it's it's gonna be out there.

Nor a -- if you look -- at recent poll and it shows that most American.

Whether it's an eighteen year old or sixteen year old believes that that we should that that taxes should not be -- -- any in any way shape or form.

Maybe that's the argument -- Romney can make against President Obama excellent.

What do you say maybe not as eloquently as some virgin departed say is that the issue isn't my taxes zero taxes the issue is what I'm saying it's what.

Your -- the issue isn't you know whether this their tax law -- -- -- that we have it is too complicated for words from me.

It's it's whether it's too complicated.

And -- for you.

I think yes to sort of turn -- back to that but as you've reported he's had a double -- -- time.

Doing that on a host of other issues.

Some needs to be seen whether he can get this back to what he thinks is that the real bread and butter.

Issue the economy and and the fact back to the 47%.

And -- was getting him in trouble last week.

Leaving aside do who who's ever noses out of joint as a result of those remarks focus on the 47%.

Not paying any federal income taxes how did we as a country get to that point I think did these are some of the things that he wants to bring.

Back front and center will -- The president is also heavily campaigning of course that both are in the -- ground say it's -- in particular President Obama now going after Mitt Romney.

An Ohio -- what do you make of that campaign strategy that -- strategy that the president is doing in Ohio it's no.

Accident that there were really focusing on -- seminary battleground state senate most of them -- -- I think North Carolina.

The president has pulled ahead now the one thing I have noticed about these polls as you have to Sheryl said that the wide disparities week to week we get -- month.

-- couple weeks ago they were all like.

Within a point now some of them plot points or more but that's represented swings that are.

It's typical for September but we we forget dated September -- and things could change mightily at this point -- 1980 Jimmy Carter was leading there was a brief point.

In this month -- 1988 Michael Dukakis was leading so we we -- some early conclusions that could be.

Concluded in correct.

-- but but the so I'm -- I'm looking at the national numbers that show it to you know near dead even race and I I I'd find it.

Out of the logical sequence of events -- the swing states to be so disproportionate -- Wilson.

Before I let you go next week do you think that Romney can effectively has he moved on from from -- some called -- But it -- say honesty that he showed -- -- behind the scenes video.

I don't know what I do know and I know this sounds tired for people who are not from -- here it's about a fox persons on about.

Going mainstream media but.

I do notice that Romney is treated very differently than as the president and other words Mitt Romney can be ripped the new one for saying.

The president was politicizing events in the Middle East but not the president for commenting.

Mitt Romney was politicizing that.

Well on board Air Force One to a fund raiser.

In Vegas it is what it is I understand that the political equation here but I think it's gonna be incumbent on Romney.

In that debate to re frame it back to the economy -- -- -- back to what he thinks he can bring.

You know -- easier said than done and then the media whether will fairly portrayed the results after that we'll see.

Neil thank you can't see housing the end of the bright red tie on Monday -- on the forty room and I.

The man in Neal very much like -- old not a few parts for us know if it'd be covering all the presidential debates for Fox Business that first one's going to be next Wednesday.

October 3 and Neal we'll be there -- We'll call -- the.
