Criticizing Romney for paying an average rate of 15% is ridiculous. Given that his main source of income is venture capital, it would have been surprising if it was anything different. Most businessmen I know think it is irresponsible to overpay your taxes. I suspect that this is close to a universal sentiment. Learned Hand said it best:
