What To Watch For -- Reagan Debate

By hotlineblog

SIMI VALLEY, CA --

1. Comparisons between anti-communism and the war on terror (or the "war of terror").
2. Mitt Romney's mentions of "McCain-Kennedy" and "McCain-Feingold"
3. Mike Huckabee's attempt to distinguish himself as the "authentic conservative" in the field.
4. A debate about climate change, starring John McCain and Mitt Romney
5. Tepid praise for Pres. Bush
6. Standard Reaganesque themes: lower taxes, stronger national defense
7. Implicit criticism of the 109th Congress and its leaders
8. Denial: those Republicans who assert that '06 had little to do with the war
9. Praise for -- and criticism of -- Hillary Clinton. (a Chris Matthews obsession).
10. An unusual focus on religious conservatives in South Carolina
11. Let's make a prediction: no Mormon question. That'd be refreshing.
12. "Battlefield Earth" jokes.
13. Lots of Pelosi/Reid bashing.
14. Sentences beginning with "Ronald Reagan thought..." or "Ronald Reagan knew..."
15. Assertions that America is fundamentally conservative and wants its leaders to be fundamentally conservative.
16. Questions about Fred Thompson and his significance to the GOP field
17. Reminders about the "11th commandment" -- Reagan's suggestion that Republicans shalt not attack one another.
