Easy to say, until you realize that disclosing your ability to essentially nullify your tax liability by using loopholes in tax codes will make it harder for you to reach elected office. This is a political issue, not a financial one.
The Clinton's effective tax rate based on their early aughts tax returns was something like 31%. I knew at that point that Hillary was running for President. In a way, that made her smarter than Romney...except Romney will pretty much have dodged the bullet this story would have caused if it came out 30 days earlier.
Anyway, we'll all know who's the President by 9pm Tuesday night. If Obama wins Ohio and Pennsy, it's a wrap. Mitt would no longer have any credible paths to 270.
Rick Perry and that Detroit News Op Ed piece would have sunk his chances.

Rick Perry - Mitt had to run Right of Perry on immigration to knock out his biggest competition. Perry said it was immoral (or some equivalent) to deport children who were in school and productive because their parents were illegal. Mitt had to out-GOP him, so he went "self deportation" and beyond. That killed his chances with the Latino vote.
Op Ed - "Let Detroit Go Bankrupt"
Those two things handcuffed him in the Rust Belt and the Sun Belt. He made his path to 270 almost impossible because of those two single items.

He saw you browsing, or did it come up on a URL history list?

Which should be relatively fine...as long as he gets no ID.

eCat has pictures of himself here. Even without that, it would be pretty easy to deduce: talks of his job, Cinci, his wife, kids (take a lap), etc, etc...
