Reagan Library Republican Presidential Debate: January 30, 2008
SIMI VALLEY, California (CNN) -- Republican presidential hopefuls will face off Wednesday night without a familiar face as ex-New York Mayor Rudy Giuliani is expected to drop out and endorse front-runner Sen. John McCain.
The remaining candidates will take the stage in a debate -- sponsored by CNN, the Los Angeles Times and Politico -- beginning at 8 p.m. ET Wednesday.
The event at the Ronald Reagan Presidential Library in Simi Valley, California, follows McCain's Tuesday night win in the Florida primary.
McCain topped former Massachusetts Gov. Mitt Romney 36 percent to 31 percent in the hotly contested race.
Giuliani placed third with 15 percent of the vote, followed closely by former Arkansas Gov. Mike Huckabee with 14 percent, and Rep. Ron Paul of Texas was fifth with 3 percent.
Giuliani is expected to end his White House bid and endorse McCain at a campaign event in California later Wednesday, Republican Party sources said.
Minus Giuliani, the debate will be a four-candidate affair -- McCain, Romney, Huckabee and Paul -- with CNN's Anderson Cooper moderating.

“McCain looks really petty and smarmy.”
His smirk is unbelievable. He’s coming across just awful.

I would love that! McCain is horrible. I know! I live in AZ. My son is a Marine at Edwards right now. He voted early for Romney.

Mitt has nothing to lose. I like his feisty attitude tonight.
To: Travis McGee
Oh I see. McCain said timetable was a buzz word for those who wanted to cut and run. Since when does he decide what words mean??? God Lord McCain is a %!^%^%*(! !@(!**()( !)(@!(. McCain just got booed by the crowd questioning ROmney's ability to lead against terrorism.
At this point, I would trust Romney in the WoT before 'close Guantanemo' McCain.

Heck yes, both their faces are turning a bit red, this is pretty good stuff indeed.
FWIW, Romney seemed to be saying that we should set performance goals for Al Maliki, not “We are leaving ASAP”

It’s a good question though: why couldn’t Romney comment on the surge when he was governor? Why not?
