The Democrats could be the anti-tax party if they wanted to by proposing that there be no audits for all taxpayers making under $100,000 unless there is a clear and compelling case of fraud. Then they could propose abolishing the income tax all together for workers making under $35,000 a year. They could put a populist spin on it by saying that "we trust you. We trust you to do your taxes honestly. The other party does not trust you and does audits and hires private debt collectors to harass Americans."

All of which would be paid for by pulling out of Iraq and rolling back that part of the Bush tax cuts that went to the top 2% of Americans.
