Getting ready in Tampa
Tampa, Florida (CNN) – Greetings from the Florida State Fairgrounds, site of Monday night’s CNN Tea Party Republican debate.
While it might be relatively quiet on the campaign trail this weekend, as the country marks the 10th anniversary of the 9/11 terrorist attacks, it’s anything but quiet here at the debate site.
And come Monday night, we’ll be firmly in the presidential campaign spotlight, as eight GOP White House contenders share the stage and answer questions from tea party activists and supporters from here in the debate hall and from sites across the country.
On Monday, Sept. 12th, CNN will broadcast the "Tea Party Republican Debate," live from Tampa, Florida at 8 p.m. ET. Follow all the issues and campaign news leading up to the debate on CNNPolitics.com and @cnnpolitics on Twitter.
a Tea Party debate, huh? Well I think one of the questions that should be asked is why is the Tea Party so unpopular now polling at only 28% or less approval rating? Would love to hear what Michelle Bachmann's answer would be to that. I'm guessing though it's the "evil left-wing media's" fault for portraying them in such a negative light.
The most important question... will RON PAUL be in attendance?
I would have thought there would have been a Big Top! Usually when the circus comes to town there is a tent! And where's the little car for the clowns to get out of that will be debating?
Okay – we had the Fox News Debate, which equal Tea Party. We had the MSNBC debate – even though the questions may have been more liberal the answers were Tea Party-ish; and now we have the CNN Tea Party debate, which is Tea Party. What's next? We have heard it all and NOTHING is left but the debate with President Obama and the loser from the other side!!!
