Iowa Republican Rep. Steve King announced an expanded list of speakers for a conservative conference he'll hold next month in Des Moines to underscore the nascent GOP nomination fight that will unfold in his state over the next year.
South Carolina Sen. Jim DeMint will keynote the Conservative Principles Conference on March 26, and former Pennsylvania Sen. Rick Santorum is scheduled to participate as well. Now King has added Minnesota Rep. Michele Bachmann, former Ambassador John Bolton and Herman Cain, all of whom are exploring the 2012 race for the White House.
The roster skews heavily to the most conservative potential hopefuls for the 2012 GOP nomination, and the event also will place heavy emphasis on tea party groups, showing the importance of conservative causes to GOP voters in the first-in-the-nation caucuses.
