Mike Huckabee, a Republican presidential candidate in 2008 now hosting a program on the Fox News Channel, will use his national cable platform this Saturday to host a forum—not a debate—between the remaining GOP hopefuls this year, The New York Times reported.

A Fox News executive told the Times that Mitt Romney, Rick Santorum, and Newt Gingrich have agreed to appear in the two-hour program starting at 8 p.m. on Saturday, broadcast live from Ohio, one of the key swing states holding a primary next week on Super Tuesday. Ron Paul has not yet committed, the executive said.
