Sitting at my kitchen table, surrounded by a collection of memorabilia from this weekend’s CPAC in Washington DC as I write this post. Reflecting on the meeting events, it occurs to me that the magic and appeal of CPAC does not come from the political glitterati that sweep in for a speech then leave; but from the people who are on the front lines of preserving conservative values around this nation and abroad. These are MY people, it was an honor to spend quality time with them, instead of the glitterati.
