Florida Attorney General Pam Bondi is slated to co-host a Republican presidential candidate forum on Fox News’ Huckabee this Saturday, exactly one month before the Iowa caucuses. Bondi will interview candidates alongside Oklahoma Attorney General E. Scott Pruitt, Virginia Attorney General Ken Cuccinelli and former Arkansas Gov. Mike Huckabee.
Candidates Michele Bachmann, Newt Gingrich, Ron Paul, Rick Perry, Mitt Romney and Rick Santorum have all been confirmed for the event. No word on whether or not one-time frontrunner Herman Cain, who is currently being dogged by accusations of a longtime affair with a Georgia woman, will also appear. According to The New York Times, the network is also awaiting responses from Rick Perry and Jon Huntsman.
“This forum is an excellent opportunity to engage each of the candidates in a candid conversation about issues that are important to voters in our state and across the nation,” Bondi said in a press release sent out by the Republican Party of Florida. “This will be a historic election, and I am excited to play a part in helping voters gain a better understanding of candidates’ beliefs on fundamental issues such as constitutionalism and the role of government.”
Bondi appeared alongside many of the GOP presidential contenders in August, when she spoke at CPAC FL. During the event, Bondi sat on a panel that discussed strategies to end “unconstitutional ObamaCare.”
The forum will take place at 8 p.m. Sat., Dec. 3.

Mike, A wonderful presentation of our Republican candidates. Great questions from the panel. It was a opportunity to really hear and understand where the candidates are coming from. A much better forum for deciding who to vote for rather than 1 minute soundbits. I felt tonight I really knew the candidates and honestly felt really proud of all of them. I did not have that same feeling in other debates. Thanks so much Mike for advancing a program that can aid in making more intelligent voting decisions. I would hope other channels would follow suit in the future.I also liked the idea of each one having their own time without other candidates being on the stage with them.
