Down to just five Republican presidential candidates, what will the second-to-last debate before the South Carolina primary bring? A few things to watch for tonight:
Do Newt Gingrich and Rick Santorum team up to go after Mitt Romney? Or do they attack each other, hoping to consolidate conservative support behind themselves in the elusive quest to be the anti-Romney? Does Santorum go after Ron Paul, who is now threatening his place in the top three in South Carolina? Or Paul hurt himself now that he’ll presumably have more time to talk about foreign policy in a smaller field? Does Rick Perry, now in last place among the major candidates, face questions about why he hasn’t joined Jon Huntsman in dropping out? Perhaps the biggest question is how Bain is handled, both by Romney and the other candidates.

it would be nice if someone, anyone, goes after Romney. He has been unscathed for too long. The way to stop his nascent inevitability is to go after him, his liberalism, and his mormonism. No leftwing nonsense about Bain either.

" CNN Poll: Obama tied with Romney & Paul in November showdowns
Washington (CNN) – Mitt Romney is all tied up with President Barack Obama in a likely general election matchup, with the president showing signs of weakness on the economy and Romney seen as out of touch with ordinary Americans, according to a new national survey.
And a CNN/ORC International Poll released Monday also indicates that Rep. Ron Paul of Texas is also even with Obama in another possible showdown this November. The survey also suggests the Republican advantage on voter enthusiasm is eroding, which could be crucial in a close contest."
