Will Gingrich's comments on illegal immigration come back to haunt him?

I always enjoy the GOP debates. Last night's debate was a good debate.

What do you all think about Newt Gingrich's comment?

I do not disagree with Gingrich but it is very counter to a common Republican (especially Conservative Republican) sentiment. The mere appearance of amnesty can be seen as providing some incentive. If an "illegal immigrant" can "stay off the radar" (does this tend to include paying taxes?) for a number of years and then not be treated "as an illegal immigrant," is there really any incentive to not be an illegal immigrant?

What say you, GCers?
