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 can be stopped, we just have to unite behind Romney. Romney was not my first choice, but stopping McCain should be our first priority.

First we stop him, then Hilary.

fMcCain’s inablilty to stand down from his wrong position is a great example of how rigid he would be in the Oval Office. His way or No way!

It's not a good sign. This guy is so off the charts, he's scary.

McCain had malignant melanomas removed from his face and arm in 2000. He has a very long vertical scar on the left side of his face from the surgery. This is why he is rarely seen with his left face facing cameras.

LOL, I can’t help it. If that’s the way he’s going to look, then I’m going get a shot like that.

Actually I’ve liked some of what Romney had to say, but then again, I am not listening real close as I post these photos.

McCrazy out on his bashing of Donald Rumsfeld. McCrazy isn’t worthy to tie Rumsfeld’s shoes, and never has been.

Rumsfeld should be running.

Huckabee “notice me, notice me”

A vote for Huckabee now is a vote for McCain.

Amen. His ceaseless public haranguing of Rummy, even 18 months after his retirement, is ugly by even his own non-existent standards. The man is a piece of garbage.

"Huckabee: ‘Why am I not getting a question... WAH WAH WAH.’ Because you are irrelevant, Huck. Get used to it."

We all know who the candidates really are. The media insists on denying us all a legitimate debate between 2 candidates.
