CPAC Straw Poll Results Coming

Every year, one of the big news headlines coming out of CPAC is who wins the closely-watched presidential straw poll. It’s worth pointing out that it’s not clear that it has any predictive value whatsoever. If we followed past signs, you’d think that the USA was already being run by a hereditary Ron Paul dynasty. All that notwithstanding, the results are expected shortly. Our Evan McMorris-Santoro who’s there on the scene says there are apparently a few hundred more votes cast than in previous years.

Winner to be announced here a bit later this afternoon …
