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.

When he has no answer for the question, the only thing he can do is respond about his military experience or drop names.

Huck’s doing well. He is by far the best communicator in the bunch. And a great defender of life!

Romney says he regrets not serving in military. I don’t believe that.

Nor do I

“McCain needs a new joke writer. Maybe he can get John Kerry to help him write some jokes.”

You mean like the “joke” about our guys being stuck in Iraq.

Pretty amazing ROn Paul is doing better than McCain. Huck complaining once again he isn’t getting questions.

Ron Paul gives sound answer on the President’s role in the economy. Smirking McCain shown in background.

She supported Hunter IIRC, with Fred an acceptable second, but the point stands.

She has the right to oppose Gov. Romney or any other candidates right now. Quite frankly, the current crowd is pretty lousy.

Mitt Romney has proven time and again that he will say anything to get elected, true or not. It’s no surprise that Romney is doing well in this debate. He knows what to say. But it doesn’t mean he knows the right thing to do.
