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.

Huckster: we’re not better off, doesn’t blame President, blames Congress for runaway spending.

Sounds like he is channeling Edwards.......

Just what is the bump on McCain’s cheek?

That's where Hillary kissed him. The infection will eventually go down.

I just cannot see how Paul and his wacky notions have any chance to get the GOP nomination and if he splits off for a 3rd party run, he cannot win.

He's in the Final Four. Can't be all that wacky, right.

I’m actually glad he blamed Congress. He followed strong after the wobbly McCain, and then assessed blame to McCain’s Congress.
