GOP split over terms of new 'Contract with America'"

Republicans are salivating over the prospect of winning back the House in November, and they’re planning to produce a new “Contract With America” in the hopes of sealing the deal.

The catch: They don’t agree yet on what should be in it.

House Minority Whip Eric Cantor wants a document, akin to Newt Gingrich’s 1994 Contract With America, that identifies specific pieces of legislation Republicans could pass if they win back the House. He thinks Republicans should “put up or shut up,” an aide close to the process said.

So does Indiana Rep. Mike Pence, the House Republican Conference chairman. The party doesn’t need “sloganeering,” someone familiar with his thinking said, and he favors an approach that “tells people what

Are you Effin kidding me?????

Look this is really simple. Let them do it. And then slap them Hard, and I mean full court, well funded, well produced commercial showing their ass hat performance and their sleaze when they were in power. juxtapose Boehner's "Hell No You Can't, With Obama's "there are no red states or blue states, there are the United States"...Mock them....excoriated them make them look like idiots and those who would dain to support them look like suckers!

Look how awful they made the country the last time the contract was issued. We got the bush selected by the Dancing Supremes for 8 horrible years. Look what a mess they made of our country.

BOHICA

And we all know what republicans are good for.

And we will remind the public of that fact. We will also remind that Republicans and their policies are failures. Look at what Bush left the people after he left office. Look at all of the men and women that died in Iraq and Afghanistan because of his lies. And the men, women, and children that died because of 9/11 when he and Condaleeza Rice refused to pay attention to the warning signs.

mot Presidential. I honestly think pulling the "w" card has run it's course.

We need to run against the Party of NO and the Party of Broken Promises and mo constraints.

And if they try using anything similar to "Contract with America" it should be thrown right back at them too. Your "Broken Promises" would tie in with the "Contract with America" as well.

On edit:

In addition, congressional races should hit Republican incumbents with their record. Too many haven't done squat while in office. Their legislative record in too many cases are negligible. More times than not I believe legislation they have sponsored consisted of naming a Post Office building or recognizing some stupid ass sports team than anything substantial.
