Front-runners clash over immigration in CNN debate

Newt Gingrich called for a limited amnesty for longtime illegal immigrants who meet certain criteria; Mitt Romney labeled amnesty a magnet for illegal immigration.

What did you guys think of the GOP Debate?

Newt is the new front runner and is now entering into the immigration debate as the "humane but not stupid" contrary to Rick Perry.

I personally found Newt's responses very delusional, he spoke about the pathway very clearly. He is proposing that for those who have stayed here for over 25 years, paid taxes, and are members of a "Church," be awarded a pathway to residency in the U.S. He is trying a new approach to all those evangelicals. If he didn't mention the "church" requirement, I would agree with him, but it seems he is just promising with no future to me.

Meh... Politicians....

Can't trust a word from them..

except for Senator Durbin.

Wow Newt going rouge there.

Newt is trying to be a pragmatist on the issue. He does have insane ideas, but he is trying.

So guys, let's hope that either Newt or Perry win the nomination. I don't think Huntsman has a chance.

Was not expecting that from Newt. He isn't going to win, but at least he can bring a little bit of sanity to the stupid republican primaries.

Newt says "And I'm prepared to take the heat for saying 'let's be humane and enforce the law without giving them citizenship but by finding a way to create legality so they are not separate from their families."

For the first time a politician has said lets compromise and then he adds his requirements, quarter century, church going haha ..... And again he became insane. I want Newt to get the nomination and make strides in the polls which forces Obama to say something and try something other than the blame game. Thing is Obama presidency has been in the lame duck since its second year simply because the Right sees that beating him will mean dismantling his idea "CHANGE" from within. They have done it on every single issue and it wont stop until hes gone.

In the end, I feel Romney will win the nomination since he is the only one that is able to beat Obama in 2012. Although the primaries do seem a little insane at times. Pic Related

Next week

Huntsman has taken the lead.

I want one of the crazies (Cain, Bachmann, etc...) to win the nomination, easy win for Obama.

It's all bullshit and we know it, if Newt was the speaker of the house he'd be worse than Boehner.
