By Sarah McBrideThe most-awaited showdown at Wednesday’s Republican debate could be between Donald Trump and the constitutional law professor who has challenged the reality TV star turned front-runner’s knowledge of world affairs, moderator Hugh Hewitt.Hewitt, a former Nixon aide, shot into the presidential campaign spotlight earlier this month, when he put Trump on the spot, asking him to identify the leaders of Hezbollah, Al Qaeda, the Nusra Front and Islamic State as part of his syndicated radio show.The question stumped Trump, who later turned on Hewitt, calling him a “third-rate radio announcer” and a practioner of “gotcha” journalism.Hewitt says the insults have not changed his approach to questions for the 10 candidates who will join Trump at the second Republican debate set for the Reagan Library outside Los Angeles on Wednesday.“I have three teenagers to whom I’ve denied keys to the car,” he told Reuters. “So I’ve heard much worse than that.”

TALES FROM THE TRAIL
Donald Trump is still living down his derisive comments about the looks of rival Republican presidential candidate Carly Fiorina. And her Super PAC saw an opportunity.
The “Carly For America” Super PAC has released a new digital ad called “Faces,” which takes its cue from one of Trump’s latest stabs at his rivals: ”Look at that face. Would anyone vote for that?” he told Rolling Stone magazine, when asked about the only woman in the 16-candidate Republican race for the party’s nomination.
“Can you imagine that, the face of our next president?” Trump is quoted as saying. “I mean, she’s a woman, and I’m not s’posedta say bad things, but really, folks, come on. Are we serious?”
Fiorina, a former Hewlett-Packard chief executive officer, has avoided addressing those comments directly, arguing that it was her rise in the polls that was getting under the skin of the famously combative and verbally brazen business mogul, whose comments about women have drawn accusations of sexism and chauvinism.
The Super PAC backing Fiorina, however, turned Trump’s comments into and ad aimed at women, which starts with Fiorina herself saying, “Look at this face,” and proceeds to show faces of women from all walks of life as the candidate describes the faces of women in her audience as “the face of leadership in our party, the party of women’s suffrage.”
“This is a face of a 61-year-old woman,” Fiorina says. “I am proud of every year and every wrinkle.”
