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 - Green Gas Bag
McGreen is pandering the the Global Warming crowd.... LOL
I’m kind of wondering if Hitlery will choose Gore for her VP and if McCain picked Lieberman, wouldn’t that be FUNNY?!
We’ll that may take a little time so I guess I’ll just have to wing it as I’m sure there’s other Freepers in the dark about this too, but thanks anyway.
If I want to hear “green” propaganda, I’d listen to the RATs debate.
McCain just dropped Sarkozy’s name indirectly. Good grief.
YES, haha, I heard that too.
What is McCain’s definition of Federalism? Romney should ask him that?
McCain - Blah, blah, name, blah, blah, name Absolutely no substance
McCain is Very Big with Moderate Republicans who have always disliked the conservative, pro-life, pro-gun, middle class base who loved Ronald Reagan.
Check this website after you take a stiff drink:

These are the people who are pushing the McCain nomination.
They even call themselves “socially progressive.”
This website really has depressed me more than McCain’s win last night.
I went to the MD page, because I campaigned hard for Michael Steele, and he has really disappointed me. He seems a fair-weather Republican now. The MD page has lots of statements about their pro-choice stance,
Oh God!
Mitt is a green believer too!
I thought the Dem debate was on at the same time tomorrow evening.
My wish for this debate:
1. That McCain would totally lose his temper and stand up screaming and swearing at Mitt.
2. That someone would ask Huckabee about his son’s killing of that dog, and Huck’s covering it up, resulting in retribution for his son.
Someone tell me: Do wishes ever come true?
McWhat’s His Name ought to take the solar powered train back home! LOL
Didn’t have far to go!
I am not - but I don't blame the government for that fact.
ughhh 10 more months of this agony
And you FReepers thought Paul was nuts. Compared to McCain he’s a rocket scientist.
Caught that comment, too.
He seems to be sprinkling his answers with “buzz words”; conservative, federalist, etc.
