Meaningless to the extent that any straw poll of Conservatives is meaningless.
11,000+ were at this thing. Biggest turnout ever.
Was CPAC ever meaningful?
I’ve watched a decent amount of this, and it didn’t seem like I was watching all 2nd stringers.
Palin wasn’t there, but SarahPAC was a sponsor. Huckabee I don’t think was there.
The Bushes never went. Reagan went over 10 times.
Pretty much everyone was there (not Sarah, but SarahPAC, and not Huckabee) and apparently Ron Paul won again.
I saw a lot of candidates on my tv. The victory belongs to Ron Paul.
This is why it is not representative of the GOP at large but the Reagan Conservative wing.
