This is stuff you can't make up from teabaggers because this remark is essentially throwing away an election. If Governor Manchin has any sense of logic and desire to still win, he needs to make an ad about this asap.
Raese made his comments from an ABC interview that was picked up by Huffington Post.

When pressed on the matter and asked if he thinks the federal minimum wage rate -- $7.25 per hour -- should be repealed, Raese responded, "absolutely."
The Senate contender said he believes government has no place "micromanaging the economy," adding, "You don't want government to set price controls. You don't want government to set wage controls. It's an archaic system that frankly has not worked."
Because having to work for a living for little money doesn't matter to someone who inherited all of his money. Essentially Rachel Maddow was right. Minimum wage is the key issue that can turn people against the tea party and back to the Democrats because nobody wants to see their salary cut.
These are the crazy ideological extremists that people might elect to the Senate and comments like these need to become public knowledge or else people will end up greatly regret what they voted for.
