DEBORAH MARCHINI, CNN ANCHOR: The four-day Republican convention gets under way today in Philadelphia.</s>DAVID HAFFENREFFER, CNN ANCHOR: And joining us now from the GOP's very first convention of the new century is Bill Dorman. Bill, good morning.</s>BILL DORMAN, CNN CORRESPONDENT: Good morning, David and Deb. Well, things are pretty quiet right now, actually, before getting under way. But later today, the convention will open. A platform will be discussed, will be passed, then it's on to the issues. Tonight, Colin Powell probably the star speaker of the evening. But for investors for Wall Street looking at this convention, there is going to be close attention paid to the talk of tax cuts: How deep? Where specifically? We know some of them, we expect to hear more details. Also, curiosity about more information about Social Security money that may be headed for the stock market: Should the Republicans be triumphant? Also, some fleshing out of details on health care policy. Pharmaceutical companies, in particular, very anxious to hear about that, backing the GOP rather than the Democrats on that fear of price controls. Other issues here include increased defense spending. We're likely to hear about that. Each evening of this convention has a theme. The overall convention theme for the Republicans is "Renewing America's Purpose Together." So we're likely to hear a number of items tied together under that banner. So a number of things to work through right now. Interestingly enough, in terms of the convention itself and the platform, you may recall the last convention there were calls to abolish the Commerce Department, amongst other things. That is out of the current policy platform, so no talk about that. But in terms of other financial matters, Wall Street will be paying close attention during the next few days -- David, Deborah.</s>MARCHINI: All right, Bill Dorman, thanks a lot.
