Gingrich is proposing a comprehensive immigration reform. He is the ONLY candidate to have had the guts to do that.
If you want to keep the same non-functional system that has existed for decades and has resulted in the problems that we have, fine. But nobody except Gingrich is proposing concrete alternatives and a way forward.
Yup and I think he said something like "I know I'm going to take a hit for this but ...."
I like a man that gives his truthful opinion even thou his knows it may not be popular. Mitt and Bachmann jumped on Newt but both of them know that every word Newt said was correct. Particularly the part about nothing will happen until the boarder is controlled. Big plus for Newt, big minus for Mitt and Bachmann. Minor plus for Paul also telling the truth (mass deportations) "it's not going to happen".
