Earlier today, Washington political blog Big Head DC broke the story
that the
NH Republican Party has pulled out of co-sponsoring the Fox News GOP
candidates formum in NH this Saturday. Fox has invited only Mitt
Romney, Mike Huckabee, John McCain, Rudy Giuliani, and Fred Thompson -
the "Fox News Five" - but did not invite Ron Paul or Duncan Hunter.
Paul beat Giuliani in the IA caucuses, and is polling higher than
Thompson in NH.
In a staff story, BHDC reports: "Big Head DC hears that Fergus Cullen,
head of the New Hampshire GOP, has caved to demands to include Ron
Paul and Duncan Hunter in FOX News Channel's Sunday evening forum, and
has therefore withdrawn from the partnership the state Republican
Party had previously secured with the network.
"Big Head DC contacted FOX News to find out whether the forum was
still in play and we're told it will continue as scheduled with
Huckabee, Romney, McCain, Giuliani and Thompson, serving as the last
exchange between the candidates before Tuesday's New Hampshire
primary."
