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.

I think I caught a hearing aid in his right ear.
He was a Reagan Revolutionary!
I don't think any liberal is smart. That includes Romney.
McCain: Footsoldier of the Reagan Revolution - get a new line.
Finally somebody calls McCain out on his tax cut lies...and he sidesteps the question by throwing up Reagan’s name.
Good gawd... shut up McCain already...
Reagan namedropped
*drink*
Oh look, McCain bragging about being part of the “Reagan Revolution” again!
Drink up!
McCain: Footsoldier of the Reagan Revolution - get a new line.

How many times has McCain dropped Jack Kemp’s name tonight when faced with an economic question?
Okay, Hucklebee has so embarrassed himself.
McCain is wanting to change now...amazing. He is trying to sound conservative but he isn’t. And never will be.
“Lower and middle Americans need more help” (McC)
There’s a Federalist view for ya!
And then he goes off on his tangent about who he knows and what a foot soldier he was for Reagan...said it TWICE
McWhat’s His Name believes his own LIES!
What the media is missing is that McCain chose to punish the American people by not supporting tax cuts because congress couldn't get their crap together. Don't punish us because YOU can't stop with the pork!
