Calvin Michael Putney joins us live from the socalled spin room on the um campus. Michael week what can we expect tonight . Michael calvin and laurie, i think we can expect another good oldfashioned freeforall debate like weave seen over the past few months unless, unless donald t tmp comes out and says im going to be president ial or implies he wants to be subdued, less flamboyant. At, of course, is not really his strong suit. Hehe is full of braggadocio. He says that everying in his presidency is going to be great. The wall is going to be built. Mexico is going to pay for it. And he will negotia much better trade deals than the one weve got. Trump will be trump unless he is, as i say, might be a little subdued. Marco rubio tonight needs a really outstanding performance, needs to prove he is still a viable and credible candidate who can win florida on tuesday. Pretty much game over for marco rubio, a poll out today shows rubio has ground to make up if he is going to win. The Suffolk University poll has trump at 36 , rubio 27 , nine points back, ted cruz at 19 and john kasich at 10 . Now, here are some of the topics that i expect are going to come up tonight. This is not divine inspiration. You can figure this out as well. Immigration, trade policy, Climate Change. They havent radle talked about Climate Change in a couple of months. Also i expect to hear a lot about national security, cuba. And then american muslims, do american muslims hate america . Donald trump says no. But last night he told cnns anderson cooper, islam hates us. That is a question that i eect to be raised here by the debate to get underway about 8. 30. Michael putney. Laurie . Reporter speaking of the questions and the format youve been involved in so many debates. Have you heard the format for tonight . Will there be anything differ about it tonight in. Not that i know of. In previous debates have been theyve really brought audience members forward to ask questions. They can a little bit of that last night, very little with the democratic candidate i think some university of miami students may be apked to present a question or two, but jake tapper is the moderator, very smart guy. I think that he and perhaps the other journalists, the washington times, a newspaper, is one of the cosponsors of the debate alongith google. So they are probably going to be the ones asking the questions. Laurie all right. Everyone will be gripped to it. Michael, thank you.
