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 is hell bent on ruining his so-called momentum. He really is acting like a grade school bully.

McCain is terrible tonight. The question is how many people will know and will it move votes to Romney. Unfortunately Huckabee is very good in this setting and he takes votes from Romney and makes McCain a winner in the South.

Asking McInsane about the economy now. He says he can manage the economy because he’s a leader. Arrrr?

Reagan had Goldwater’s Social platform coupled to AEI’s Intl models, two excellent role models for the time period.

Duncan Hunter also commented on Romney’s statement at the time.

There are many things to dislike and even hate about McCain, this is not one of them.

Romney is lying.

McCain is right on the war,

McCain proposes granting Constitutional rights to enemy terrorists who have never set foot on American soil.

It was especially irritating to hear McCain brag about how he had the experience to understand the ground campaign considering that he is a Navy man who finished 5th from the bottom at the Academy.
