I would like to see the GOP resemble a more "competent" argument that defined them during the New Deal Era. Not necessarily "me tooism" of the Rockefeller Republicans, but I would be fine with them being associated with the status quo. The top tax rates are fine right now. Be the party that doesn't want to raise them further, not the party that wants them recklessly low. That's just one example, but we used to have a reputation as the "smarter governing party," IMO, and it is easier to convince people that your way actually will benefit them (aka respond to a charge of a lack of empathy, a traditional criticism of "the right") than it is to convince them that you're, well, not crazy.
