LAS VEGAS -- With the Democratic presidential contenders playing debate roulette here at the University of Nevada-Las Vegas today, we thought we’d check in on the Republican candidates to see what they’re doing outside the spotlight.
Mitt Romney is in Burbank this afternoon for one of his ‘Ask Mitt Anything’ forums, and cycles his way through Vegas tomorrow for the Las Vegas Chamber of Commerce Economic Roundtable. He plans to stick around Saturday for another ‘Ask Mitt’ forum and to rally volunteers.
Rudy Giuliani campaigns in Florida today and speaks before the Federalist Society 2007 Lawyers Convention in Washington, D.C., on Saturday, while letting his first TV ad do the campaigning for him in New Hampshire, where John McCain begins four days of retail stops and speeches tomorrow after raising money in California and Colorado today.
Tom Tancredo is also in New Hampshire today and tomorrow. The rest of the Republicans -- Mike Huckabee, Duncan Hunter, Ron Paul and Fred Thompson -- apparently are off the trail today, although with this picture anchoring his website, you gotta figure Huckabee is here in Vegas somewhere, at least in spirit.
