"[O]ur party is all about more jobs and better pay."
-Mitt Romney
I hate to get all 'argument clinic' with you, Mitt, but no, it isn't. Not in this universe, not on this timeline.
I'm glad to hear that you support a minimum wage increase, but your party's not only against a minimum wage increase, but a nontrivial chunk of your party is against the existence of a minimum wage altogether. It wouldn't surprise me if that were the default GOP position in another four years.
And your party's not for more jobs, either. Lord knows they've had plenty of time to do something about jobs, and been given a number of Dem initiatives they could sign onto. To paraphrase Groucho, whatever it is, they're against it.
