The Republicans will debate this afternoon in Iowa. It should be a rough-and-tumble affair given the amount of negative attacks flying around in the blogosphere and the mainstream media. If Mike Huckabee is prepared for the attacks, he could be the new GOP frontrunner.

Jim Geraghty previews today's Iowa debate with the GOP candidates and predicts squabbling among Rudy Giuliani, Huckabee and Mitt Romney. This bickering could provide an opening for John McCain and Fred Thompson. Steve Benen sheds some light on Huckabee's past. It seems he signed a full-page ad in 1998 urging women "to gracefully submit to the servant leadership of her husband." Hmmm. This may not go over well in a general election with female voters. Jonathan Martin covers the sly barb that Huckabee aimed at Romney: "Don't Mormons believe Jesus and the Devil are brothers?" Huckabee refuses to discuss his beliefs, but this off-handed comment could get the media wagging on Mormonism. Michelle Malkin rails on the GOP candidates she finds weak on illegal immigration, including Giuliani, Huckabee and McCain. She can't figure out why Minuteman Civil Defense League founder Jim Gilchrist would support Huckabee.Democrats
