I would love, love, LOVE for the GOP in the house to pass a $100/hour minimum wage bill. Then when the Senate and President oppose it, just run on that:
The Republicans wanted to give you a $100/hour minimum wage, but the Democrats said “No!”. The Democrats say they are for the working poor, but when the bill came to them, they turned you down.
Make the Democrats try to explain to the “low information voters” (i.e. stupid people) why they voted it down.
put the working poor into the highest tax bracket!
ha, flat tax.
heh
What makes you think the dems wouldn’t vote for it? When companies start laying off it’ll be the corporations’ fault.
don, not long after Beck’s TV show started some black guy suggested giving everyone a million dollars.
what if they call your bluff and pass it?

That is a great idea. One that would resonate with the low-info voters.
You make a HUGE assumption. I do not think they would vote it down. They could blame the GOP for the fallout... AND it seems pretty obvious to me that the destruction of the American private-sector economy IS their goal. It would be a win-win for them - they achieve their goal, and get to blame it on the other guy.
