National Republican leaders made waves recently with a dim view of the party’s future if it fails to expand its core support beyond white males and social conservatives. But weeks after Priebus unveiled the “Growth and Opportunity Project” report, many party players maintain that the problem is more about communication &#8212; bad messengers saying the wrong things at the wrong times &#8212; than policy positions, immigration being the exception.

Congressional Republicans’ unyielding stand against income tax increases has caught President Barack Obama and his allies off guard. The result is a spending-cuts-only approach to deficit reduction that Democrats wanted to avoid. The events have dimmed hopes for broader efforts to start taming costly “entitlement” programs such as Medicare and Social Security. (AP Photo/J.

Terry Branstad speaks during an interview with The Associated Press, in this May 11, 2011 file photo taken in Des Moines, Iowa. The Iowa straw poll has devolved into a full-blown sideshow, Branstad and other critics contend. They say it's an unfair and false test that has felled good candidates and kept others from competing in the state. The poll, which morphed over the decades into a closely watched early test of caucus campaign strength, had "outlived its usefulness," Branstad told The Wall Street Journal Tuesday Nov. 20, 2012.

Even with his strong debate performance, Romney needs every possible advantage to overtake President Barack Obama in the next four weeks. Not helping him much is the Republican Party he leads. The GOP’s image is at one of its lowest points in modern times. Romney is now distancing himself a bit from some party policies. That’s most clearly seen in his emphasizing that he doesn’t want to cut taxes for high earners.
