I’m voting for the guy who has delivered a balanced budget and required moochers to find work.

Cain is the man.

Wonder if The Little Professror can tell is how much his Amnesty Dream Scheme will cost us legal citizens. Once these illegal families become legal they will be lining up at every federal and state agency for their entitlement freebies.

BTW what about State’s Rights? What a slap in the face to Arizona, Alabama and potentially a half dozen more states with illegal immigration laws before their State Legislatons? More Power to the Federal Government that Newt can sell his historical insight to the lawyers defending millions of illegals .

Geez = you’re the same guy who said that “immigration won’t be a big deal in the elections” about both the 2008 and 2010 elections. lol

You are lost MN. I’m not a newt voter - no way have i decided. But, that’s beside the point. The point was that it is not helpful to one’s success if the only strategy is to bring others down.

You are so stuck in said unsuccessful strategy you can’t even analyze posts properly. I’m not a newt voter. Your myopic strategy to bring others down is not successful. Dolt.

Hater? No. Just someone experienced with Newt’s promises versus Newt’s wanderings.

Awesome - putting info out there about a candidate is helpful. So put it out there. What is your experience with newt's promises versus his wanderings?

In short—if you meet certain arbitrary conditions the law will not apply to you.

That is so insulting to any constitutional fundamentalist it ain't funny!

What is it about RINOs and Liberals that they cannot comprehend ENFORCE or CHANGE a law!

Cain keeps saying to enforce current laws to deal with illegal aliens—that is such a given I am shocked other “conservatives” haven't pick up on it.

I just wish they’d post information in lieu of tear-down comments that they think will help their candidate. Does their candidate have what it takes or is their candidate just “not as bad” as they try to make out others to be?

Not such an endorsement of one’s candidate.

Every bit of your post deserves repeating...

Newt broke my heart last night—I'm sure he has a lot of good ideas but that amnesty thing is really distracting.
You're right. Real Conservatives like Ronald Reagan would never go near that "amnesty thing."

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.

"He is the ONLY candidate to have had the guts to do that.

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".

Reagan had a deal with the Democrats—amnesty in exchange for a secure border—he got screwed and was the last Real Conservative to fall for such amnesty scams.

Reagan learned a lesson all of us learned from...oh,except you that is.

Reagan got fooled by the Dems? LOL ...
Must be why he raised taxes more than a few times too.
Looks like you're the one who didn't learn anything ... there is NO perfect Conservative.
