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.

Mitt is a green believer too!

Your not being accurate.

Romney said he opposes government caps/mandates that would impose higher costs on energy use that the public would be forced to pay. And as a consequence, it would chase companies overseas, like to China, were they can pollute freely.

Uh, Huckster, if you get the 30 million illegals out of here, the roads’ll clear up really quick.

And you could actually get into a DMV office!

Yea, I have to admit that 3% in Florida was really impressive. He had sufficient votes to beat Hanging Chad.

He barely campaigned in FL because he knew either Mutt or McLame was going to win it, since it's winner-takes-all.

You do realize that the delegates aren't awarded until Feburary 9th - April anyway, right? So why waste the money.

No, between that and McCain saying “my friends” we’ll all die of alcohol poisoning.

Hi!

Amazing that no one speaks to the fact that greedy builders using slave labor flooded the market with McMansions that soon ran out of a market and that drove down the value of existing homes.

But I’ve always had a firm grasp of the obvious.
