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.

Hell, REAGAN was against Reaganism, before he was for Reaganism.

McCain had a simperish smile on his face that didn’t sit well with me.

I agree with your Reagan Library comment, but I wish Romney would bitch slap the guy if he pulls that again.

McCain is such a sleeze.

McCain just gave the MSM and talk radio another reason to analyze his lies about Romeny. That will now dominate the news — and McCain will NOT with that debate!

His answer about casualties, not presence was very strong. Even though he isn’t getting much applause in that crowd, I think he will win CA.

If McCain doesn’t wanna talk timetables for progress then he isn’t as great on defense as once was thought.

He was right about the Mitt/Cain feud being about a policy they both support though.

We need some ideas, and some passion, we are getting one and not the other.

McCain wanted boots on the ground in Kosovo so his judgement he brags about isn’t infallible.

McCain considers setting benchmarks for Iraqis 01.26.2007.

"We Catholics call that an epiphany," said Senate Foreign Relations Chairman Joseph Biden, D-Del., who is sponsoring the main Democratic resolution opposing the troop buildup.

Sen. Barack Obama, D-Ill., said: "I called for that . . . several weeks ago. I'm glad that John McCain agrees with me.
