Staying the hell out of our primaries would be a good start.

I just checked the website in question (www.AmericaSpeakingOut.com)---it's an ungodly mess and open to Rat infiltration.

Useless.

[Biggirl]

What about the “You Cut” site?

Breaking News: GOP to reinvent the wheel.

(pathetic)

[bitterohiogunclinger]

Here’s a radical idea. What if the Republican party read the Constitution and followed some of the principles highlighted there? They could campaign on being “representatives” instead of “we promise to slow the slide into communism a little bit”.
“We suck less” isn’t much of a campaign promise.

These people are beyond belief.

How about starting with creating Financial Reform bill draft of 10 pages or less, reforming and phasing out Too Big To Fail Fannie, Freddie and abolishing or severely restructuring FHA and repealing all CRA conditions on mandatory lending to those who cannot afford the mortgages or other loans, i.e. reining in the government-sponsored or government-owned institutions and government rules and regulations which have been primarily responsible for recent real-estate and related financial bubbles..?

Then introduce it to public and in Congress and unanimously vote for it (even if Democrats won’t allow to bring it to the floor for a formal vote) and stand for it as an alternative for huge, loopholes-ridden and harmful finreg bill (which is driving the markets nuts), and become a Party of Yes to smaller, more sensible and accountable government... and see their popular and political support skyrocket.

Or is it too tough for them?

[Man50D]

How about the novel concept of eliminating those programs and agencies that do not comply with the enumerated powers specifically listed Article 1 Section 8 of the Constitution! Those wild and wacky guys known as our founding fathers had this crazy idea of a limited federal government by instilling those enumerated powers in the Constitution.

I have a great idea for the RINOs in the GOP: GFYS.

Cheers!

[Moonman62]

Organizers say they welcome ideas from all voters, regardless of party affiliation.

That's the problem right there.

The GOP already knows what we want, and they don't like it, so they come up with a new stall and ignore tactic.

[FrankR]

Seeking ideas from the public....heh heh heh.

How about just attending a TEA party and reading the freakin' signs...that should give them some remote idea at what people are pissed about, and what they want.

The RINO arm of the GOP are - face it - scared $#!+less of the democrats. They are so afraid the dems will call them a name, or say something negative about them, they have to double up on the "Depends" every morning.

People are NOT looking for a "gimmick"...we've got one of those in the White House now. The only "idea" the GOP needs is called "The Constitution of the United States of America".

While most of us were proud when they were called "The party of 'NO'", the RINO sissies were acting like shrinking violets trying to run away from it.

The RINO's spend half their time figuring out how to please the democrats and the other half hiding from the lamestream press.

Meanwhile, those of us who are conservative are looking for a leader, a fearless leader...like the new Governor of New Jersey, or like the Governor of Arizona, or the former Governor of Alaska. People who aren't afraid to say what they think and what they believe in.

Every one of them who try and appease the black caucus, code pink, the gay lobby, NAMBLA, whacko environuts, or any other radical group, are marked off my radar. They are RINO's through and through. This nation is about the people, not fringe, special-interest groups.

The tail needs to quit wagging the dog in this country, or it will surely die. When these special interest groups go against the majority at large, they have shown their desire to go against the grain and NOT participate in America.

So, GOP, join the chia pets and fluff your foiliage, and you will be in the unemployment line after November. November is not just about getting rid of democrats, it's about getting rid of @$$holes who are taking our once brave and free nation and turning it into a third world dictatorship.

So, here's your "idea"...be an American.

[1010RD]

FYI, they’re looking for your balanced budget idea.

Sock it too them.

[stevem]

I'm just brainstorming here, but start by reading the Republican Party Platform and the Constitution, not necessarily in that order.

They might promise that before one new idea gets a review, everything passed since Obama was sworn in will be repealed. If they don't have enough votes to defeat a veto, it will be two light years legislatively. They should say that positively so they aren't accused of being the Party of No.

[LibLieSlayer]

QUIT PLAYING GAMES repubics... YOU KNOW WHAT TO DO... FIRE steele AND GET OUT THERE AND JUST DO IT! Oh no... you will just play games and send out more requests for donations that are filling up land fills all over America.

LLS

[myself6]

They are looking for some kind of cover to support a more “progressive” agenda... again.

These people are total frauds and should be FORCED from the party by large men wielding baseball bats and large caliber weapons.

[Nickname]

Talk about flailing. I wonder how much money they’ve poured into their “rebranding” effort thus far.

They started with the “National Council for a New America” which didn’t last long.

Determined to continue on their populist track they’ve launched the youvote thing and now this.

I guess LEADERSHIP is too much to ask for.

[ROCKLOBSTER]

In an effort to shed its image as a "party of no"

WHAT THE HELL'S WRONG WITH "THE PARTY OF NO"?

with few original ideas to challenge the Democrat-controlled Congress and White House

The only original ideas you bastards need are "the original ideas".

[TitansAFC]

IDEA #1: RESURRECT THE BALANCED BUDGET AMENDMENT!!!!!!!!

Idea #2: Put a cap on the percent of National budget/tax receipts which can be spent on non-military Federal Employees.
