Fellow South Carolinian Greencastle tries to help narrow the field by linking to this article concerning where the Republican candidates stand on torture-specifically waterboarding. Here's the pertinent information (but be sure to read the whole thing for the subtleties):
The only clear opponents are former Arkansas Gov. Mike Huckabee, who recently said that waterboarding is torture and that torture should "not be the policy of the United States of America," Texas Rep. Ron Paul and Arizona Sen. John McCain.
"Ron Paul believes waterboarding is torture, and he is opposed to all forms of torture," spokesman Jesse Benton said.
Said McCain, who was tortured while he was a prisoner in North Vietnam: "It's in violation of the Geneva Conventions. It's in violation of existing law."
