because i live here, i have been to CPAC a few times, when work has permitted, couldn't get there this year. it is the perfect place for kids of political junkies. for the 2004 election, my then 9 yo brought in to school the bill clinton and john kerry dog chewtoys and the talking George Bush doll. The teacher asked her why she didn't have a Geo Bush CHEWTOY. my daughter came home and said, well i guess we know Ms. Kull is a DEMOCRAT! i bought the Geo Bush doll at CPAC a few years before that. they have vendors as well as speakers. i highly recommend that you go.
I very much want to attend and enjoyed most of the speeches. I have the event on Tivo and it's a treat!
