Hindsight

Actually, this isn't hindsight; I was asking these questions before the election. I will add more when my memory decides to work:

One of the last-minute things that I thought the Republicans would push to get support at the polls:

1.) Increase of mininum wage
I can see why they didn't do it, but given their fragile status on entering the election season, it would have been a great way to distract the masses from the scandals. I was sitting at home waiting for them to announce that they were discussing the minimum wage, which is why I was not 100% confident about the Democrats having such a sweeping victory. The first time I have heard the minimum wage issue being mentioned is by Nancy Pelosi (D-California) yesterday.
