Gee, maybe because
A) Immigration is not the number one issue this campaign. The top issue is the country’s economy (jobs).
B) The number 2 issue the global economy (trade), and
C) The number 3 issue is foreign policy (i.e, what to do about Iran, Afghanistan, Libya, Egypt, Syria, etc, etc, etc).
If you look thru the prism of these 3 issues, Newt is clearly the strongest candidate.
The illegal immigration policy is an issue because it came up in a debate, not because it is the thing driving this election. Newt’s plan is one that sounds REASONABLE to everyone except for the idealogs (like you), who want a purist. Since a) no candidate actually is a purist (yes, even MB has waffled on shipping them all out) because b) a purist would be unelectable ... the immigration debate is largely unimportant to deciding which candidate to support.

Do you have a source for his position on B and C?
