Obama’s income inequality push comes as the tide appears to be rising for the left on economic and social issues, something evident in everything from New York City Mayor Bill de Blasio’s election to the legal selling of marijuana in Colorado. Some conservatives fear that the party has failed to make its case on how its policies can improve the lives of less well-off voters.
"You used to have a job, now you've been forced to go on welfare, and left unable to sign up for Obamacare. That other party offers you higher taxes, no work, no income of your own, more jobs for the Chinese, no oil, high prices, and all the while, its limo-liberal leaders operate under assumed names, assumed identities, and assumed nationalities." That gets to the basics without slamming anyone EXCEPT the limo-lib Demagogic Party elite. Thanks Cincinatus' Wife.

The GOP gave us open borders, deficits,
lying, gay marriage, and RomneyCARE/ObamaCARE.

And you know what?

The GOP still supports all the above.

There's one problem there — looking at the GOP's flirting with amnesty, it looks like they aren't interested in those either.

Rand Paul's immigration speech
...The Republican Party must embrace more legal immigration.

Unfortunately, like many of the major debates in Washington, immigration has become a stalemate-where both sides are imprisoned by their own rhetoric or attachment to sacred cows that prevent the possibility of a balanced solution.

Immigration Reform will not occur until Conservative Republicans, like myself, become part of the solution. I am here today to begin that conversation.

Let's start that conversation by acknowledging we aren't going to deport 12 million illegal immigrants.

If you wish to work, if you wish to live and work in America, then we will find a place for you...

This is where prudence, compassion and thrift all point us toward the same goal: bringing these workers out of the shadows and into being taxpaying members of society.

Imagine 12 million people who are already here coming out of the shadows to become new taxpayers.12 million more people assimilating into society. 12 million more people being productive contributors.

Rand Paul calls on conservatives to embrace immigration reform
Latinos, should be a natural constituency for the party, Paul argued, but "Republicans have pushed them away with harsh rhetoric over immigration." ...he would create a bipartisan panel to determine how many visas should be granted for workers already in the United States and those who might follow... [and the buried lead] "Imagine 12 million people who are already here coming out of the shadows to become new taxpayers...

I view Romney as Obama's political clone; therefore voting for him would have been the same as voting for Obama.
Seriously, take a look at their policies; if you want a little humor you can see it summed up here.
