A look back at Mitt Romney's worst week on the campaign trail so far

Mitt Romney had the 'Worst Week in Washington' - again. (Washington Post, Sept. 21, 2012)

Monday Morning:

Diane Sawyer: The Romney camp is said to be engineering a reboot.

Middle class Americans discuss what a tax increase would mean to them. Unless the House of Representatives takes action before January 1, 2013, taxes will go up on 114 million middle-class families.

Mitt Romney finally released a second year of tax returns. And with it, some troubling new information:

Mitt Romney: "It's time to stand up to the cheaters."

Voiceover: "Tough on China? Not Mitt Romney."

"When a flood of Chinese tires threatened a thousand American jobs. It was President Obama who stood up to China and protected American workers. Mitt Romney attacked Obama's decision...said standing up to China was 'bad for the nation and our workers.'"

"How can Mitt Romney take on the cheaters when he's taking their side?"

Tough Fight between M.Romney and his bigest ideological oponent M.Romney From 4 Years Ago !

President Obama spoke on Romney's middle class tax increase and shared how his plan will keep strengthening middle class families.

President Obama was in Orlando, FL to discuss the choice in this election between two fundamentally different visions of how to grow the economy, create middle-class jobs and pay down the debt.

Today, at a grassroots event in Mansfield, Ohio, President Obama highlighted a new report from the Tax Policy Center -- a nonpartisan policy think tank -- that concludes that Mitt Romney would have to raise taxes on millions of middle-class families with children by more than $2,000 to pay for his $5 trillion tax plan tilted to the wealthiest.
