President Obama’s reelection campaign continued to hammer Mitt Romney on Sunday on the length of his tenure at Bain Capital and his limited disclosure on tax returns, while Romney’s side called the Democrats’ attacks an attempt to distract voters from the weak economy.

The Obama team rejected the Republican challenger’s demand that Obama apologize for his campaign’s suggestion last week that Romney might have committed a felony if the federal disclosures he filed about his work at Bain turn out to inaccurately reflect his role in the company.

“He’s not going to get an apology,” Obama’s deputy campaign manager, Stephanie Cutter, said on CBS’s “Face the Nation.”

But Obama campaign adviser David Axelrod downplayed Cutter’s suggestion last week that a crime may have been committed if Romney was listed on federal forms as Bain’s chief at a time when he was not involved with the company. In an appearance on CNN’s “State of the Union” on Sunday, Axelrod said the campaign is “not suggesting that based on what we know that he’s done anything illegal.”
