This is a debate about IDEAS! This is not some sporting event where the question is “Who do you think won?”
Gloria Borger won the most disgusting award.
Newt lost because you cannot give a 5 second response concerning amnesty.
If Newt had announced his big “IMMIGRATION PLAN” before the debate,
and given speeches talking about it, that would be one thing. I understand
immigration is complex.
TO DROP AMNESTY IN WHATEVER FORM IS in a debate is not a good political move.
You lose your audience.
I AM HUMANE NEWT. THAT NEIGHBOR BROKE THE LAW 25 YEARS AGO,
and he never paid a price. He got the benefits of living in this country.
He is morally wrong and he can never repay it.
He is going to have to pay the consequence of living underground,
working illegally, driving without licenses, and I am the one who is not humane?
