It would be interesting to run for office on the platform that restoring the Clinton tax rates (where they were when he upped the top rate to 39.6%) is best for everyone. It would play well until the media figured out what that actually meant.
For conservatives, Romney's unpopular "47%" assertion probably still resonates. If people aren't financially invested in the system, do they still respect it?
I'm not sure anything matters even close to as much as the real unemployment level. Our economy is stagnant because millions are leaving the job market and not searching for new work.
