Actually, if I remember correctly....Frank Luntz worked for Ross Perot and they came up with the “Contract with America”, during Perot's campaign....it wasn't under that name at the time.

When Perot dropped out, the Republicans grabbed Luntz and smartly ran with it.

Wikipedia - The Contract with America was a document released by the United States Republican Party during the 1994 Congressional election campaign. Written by Larry Hunter, who was aided by Newt Gingrich, Robert Walker, Richard Armey, Bill Paxon, Tom DeLay, John Boehner and Jim Nussle, and in part using text from former President Ronald Reagan’s 1985 State of the Union Address, the Contract detailed the actions the Republicans promised to take if they became the majority party in the United States House of Representatives for the first time in 40 years.
