Newt Gingrich, the architect of the 1994 GOP Revolution, is warning that Republicans in Congress better "get their act together" and pass tough new laws against illegal immigration - or the Democrats will win back the House and Senate in November.

Appearing on "Fox News Sunday," the former House Speaker scorched his successors for a lack of performance across a whole range of issues, but zeroed in on what he called "the debacle two weeks ago on immigration."

"The [Senate's] McCain-Kennedy bill and the compromise that followed is so far from what the average American wants," Gingrich said, "that it raises the danger of Republican [voters] staying home."

Hmmm. Anyone know if Newt is in favor of a wall? a guest worker program?

Excerpt:
America can best deal with its millions of illegal immigrants by controlling its borders and ensuring new immigrants learn to be American, former U.S. House Speaker Newt Gingrich said Wednesday. A guest worker program is needed to ensure immigrants pay taxes, get driver's licenses, buy auto insurance and abide by the law, said Gingrich, a former college history professor who was elected as a Republican in 1978 to the U.S. House from Georgia and served as speaker from 1994-98. "We have to have absolute control of the border because you have national security reasons,"
