Governor Bobby Jindal, Carly Fiorina and Dr. Ben Carson made brief addresses to the activists who attended training. In my opinion, Dr. Carson got the warmest initial response, and Gov. Jindal gave the most stirring address.

On Thursday, we will hear the following give their pitches in the Main Ballroom: Dr. Ben Carson, Senator Mike Lee, Gov Chris Christie (I know, I know, but he has guts to show up), Carly Fiorina, Senator Ted Cruz, Gov. Scott Walker, Gov. Bobby Jindal, Gov. Sarah Palin, and Nigel Farange (leader of the UKIP).

I think we need to refer to it as training for advocates instead of activists. The word activists carries such a negative connotation to me, that I usually associate liberals as being.

Does anybody have a schedule for broadcasting of CPAC ..??

I’d like to see it, but C-SPAN is so unreliable for things that have a Conservative slant.

Is it better to watch the speeches on the internet ..??

"Gov Chris Christie (I know, I know, but he has guts to show up)".................... Krispey's got a yard of guts all right .....

It would be funny if Nigel's name was added to whatever presidential polls they take during CPAC to see how far up his name goes.

Any candidate who polls lower than Nigel should likely reconsider his/her run.

I was there tonight since I live down the road from National Harbor and met both Dr. Carson and Governor Perry.

So Willard will not be there ???

The CPAC is trying to be Conservative this year ???

Who knew ???

[Dr. Thorne]

Unfortunately, CPAC does not list the schedule of the speakers, only a “General Session” from 9am-2pm and 4:430pm-6pm tomorrow. Currently, C-Span’s schedule only lists one 45 minute broadcast during the Reagan Dinner at 7:15pm on Friday.

According to their schedule, CSPAN is broadcasting 4 hrs and 20 min of CPAC speeches starting at 1 p.m. ET(10 a.m. My time).

I was able to see some of them on CSPAN 3 early a.m. and at night and parts of them on Hannity’s show last night, but missed many of them, so hope they show the ones I haven’t seen, especially Lee, Jindal, Nigel and Palin. I thought Cruz and Walker did a great job and Rubio did well. I like Dr. Carson, and maybe it was just me, but I didn’t think he did as well as he normally does (but he was good).
