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.

Amen.
I’ve heard the same legend..beyond a few outbursts here and there in the Senate building..
Anybody who is against the ID card doesn't really want to end illegal immigration.
It is a real one. From Reagan Library Page:
"...the Boeing 707 aircraft utilized as Air Force One during Reagan's administration. The aircraft, SAM 27000, was also used by six other presidents in its active service life from 1973–2001, including Richard Nixon during his second term, Gerald Ford, Jimmy Carter, George H.W. Bush, Bill Clinton, and George W. Bush. In 1990 it became a backup aircraft after the Boeing 747s were brought into service and was retired in 2001. The aircraft was flown to San Bernardino International Airport in September 2001 where it was presented to the Reagan Foundation."
Bless you, TomGuy.... you ALWAYS come through.... m’wah!!
You too.... love ya.
“I just cannot see how Paul and his wacky notions have any chance to get the GOP nomination.”
He has no chance of getting the GOP nomination. He’s going for a third party challenge and that’s why he’s still in the race: to raise money and get the free publicity before he walks out of the GOP.
“...if he splits off for a 3rd party run, he cannot win.”
That’s where I don’t entirely agree with you. He doesn’t have a good chance of winning. However, there is enough anger at both the existing major parties that a third party candidate may have a chance of launching a viable third party challenge. If the two candidates are Sen’s Clinton and McCain, their similarities will work against them.
A viable “conservative” third party would give the GOP some badly needed competition and would be a pretty nice consolation prize for this lemon of an election.
May I see your papers, comrade?
*blushes* :-)
Ron Paul leading by example? Give me a break, not a belly laugh!
This is NOT a Republican site!!
I can tell you for sure that Ron Dog was doing backflips in that casket last night! It’s a good bet that My Mom was ther urging him on. Thank you God for putting all of the Desrving together!
Unless you meant to post a different post of mine, I don’t think you meant to post that to me. If you can point me to the post I made where I used “..got it?”, I’ll respond on point.
quackity.
