Newt Gingrich carefully navigated the immigration minefield this evening, noting that he support a red card program for children of illegal immigrants to work in America, without giving them citizenship. Gingrich also added that he liked the part of the DREAM act that would allow children of illegal immigrants to serve in the military.

Bachmann jumped on Gingrich’s comments, suggesting that it sounded like the former speaker wanted to help illegal immigrants become legal.
