Alas, CPAC 2012 is no more. If you skipped days one and two because you were saving yourself for the main event – Palinmania – then today is your lucky day.
The conservative faithful rose as one to salute their idol – someone who spent half a term as governor before making money riding round the country in a bus.
Amongst all that, Mitt Romney, who’d spent much of the week suffering barbs about not being a “real conservative,” won the conferences two polls. Oh, and Grover Norquist spoke. Now we have to wait till CPAC 2013 to experience the joys all over again.
