http://hosted.ap.org/dynamic/stories/U/US_REPUBLICAN_AG... It's not easy crafting an agenda for the fall elections. Just ask Republicans in Congress.
They set up a website to solicit ideas, only to see liberals flood it with distinctly un-Republican suggestions. When Republicans invited the public to rank proposals online, critics lampooned the effort for small-bore notions such as ending a federal program for "historic whaling partners."
Republicans don't even agree on whether they need a new agenda.

Last week, the top five entries in the "Liberty and Freedom" category were: ban handguns, "drop the idea that we're a 'Christian' country," declare abortion "none of the government's business," allow gays to serve openly in the military and legalize marijuana.
