Mitt Romney is my favorite coming into tonight’s debate. As always, I’d prefer a strong showing for him tonight. McCain and Giuliani haven’t really grown on me since they announced their candidacy, so I’m not really expecting anything spectacular. In fact, I’m kind of hoping Ron Paul goes to town on Giuliani when it comes to foreign policy. I don’t agree with Ron Paul, but someone needs to actually debate Rudy on the issues. Afterall, the former mayor has nothing to run on except his post 9/11 leadership and that’s not enough for me to vote for him.

I really hope McCain is attacked tonight by all nine candidates on his immigration stance. In my opinion, immigration will kill McCain’s chances of ever becoming President of the United States. The GOP base is becoming increasingly frustrated with his kind in Congress and I expect that anger will translate into someone else getting the nod next February.

I really want to hear more from Tancredo, Hunter, and Paul and I hope they get the airtime. The debate is live in 26 minutes.
