Partying like it's 2008

Vic Bailey with the McCain Campaign set ups signs outside the University of South Carolina's Koger Center before the Republican debate Tuesday.

COLUMBIA, South Carolina (CNN) -- Events like the GOP presidential debate here in Columbia make it difficult to remember that you are in 2007 and NOT 2008.

Groups as diverse as draft "Condoleeza Rice for '08" and 9/11 conspiracy theorists have sent representatives to the Koger site in South Carolina's capitol city.

So far we've seen two small groups of protestors for the Fair Tax and one shortly after organized by Planned Parenthood.

Local television stations from across the Palmetto State are here interviewing candidate surrogates and shooting video of the media crush.

-- CNN Political Producer Laura Bernardini
