Rudy, Mitt, Fred, John, Mike, Duncan, Ron, Tom — and Alan [Byron York]
The Republican presidential field will debate next Wednesday in Des Moines in what will be the last and most important debate before the January 3 Iowa caucuses. What many observers haven't thought about is that the field will include a candidate who has not been in any previous debates: Alan Keyes. It's not clear why the Des Moines Register, which is conducting the debate, decided to include Keyes at this stage of the race. But it's probably safe to say that the rhetorically brilliant but might-say-anything Keyes will shake things up. In a good way? That remains to be seen.
