But, for sure CPAC isn't completely representative of the GOP. Mainly because it is not a social conservative gathering, nor is it a rank and file gathering. So two major parts of the party aren't really represented there.Publiushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15673569384659379202noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27612105.post-56328487572990273392010-02-22T20:03:18.761-08:002010-02-22T20:03:18.761-08:00Hey, as a side note Warner, what Republican gather...Hey, as a side note Warner, what Republican gathering DO you consider significant?<br /><br />And I recommend the blog - it's entertaining reading.piker62https://www.blogger.com/profile/10976799832683250524noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27612105.post-40387212049632470832010-02-22T19:18:09.799-08:002010-02-22T19:18:09.799-08:00I think it is funny that last year everyone on my ...I think it is funny that last year everyone on my side was mad at CPAC and said it was finished. All of a sudden this year it was THE place to be! What a difference a year makes, eh? You might have noticed that I didn't write about it on my own blog ( that's http://www.publius forum.com, folks). I don't think it is overly significant to tell the truth. Mostly because it is made up of beltway folks, not the rank and file.Publiushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15673569384659379202noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27612105.post-47690179483536290202010-02-22T16:46:57.308-08:002010-02-22T16:46:57.308-08:00So why are we paying all this attention to CPAC th...So why are we paying all this attention to CPAC then? Doesn't this prove that it's an insignificant fringe convention? Sure it's bigger than that thing Palin spoke at, but doesn't that mean they're BOTH insignificant?piker62https://www.blogger.com/profile/10976799832683250524noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27612105.post-50799452215583497252010-02-22T12:14:11.224-08:002010-02-22T12:14:11.224-08:00Paulies are just like the extreme left wing in tha...Paulies are just like the extreme left wing in that they are single mindedly devoted and show up in big numbers art every gathering that even comes close to their viewpoint. I am not worried that Paul won the straw poll. Paulies are less than 1 percent of the right. They are very loud, yet very small. Paul's showing in the last primary election for president proves it.Publiushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15673569384659379202noreply@blogger.com
