Time to address conservatives from across the country at CPAC is a prime commodity, especially for politicians eyeing a 2016 run and its not being distributed equally.
According to an internal draft of the minute-by-minute schedule at CPAC, Rand Paul, Rick Perry, Bobby Jindal, and Scott Walker are each slated to give 13-minute remarks on the main stage. Marco Rubio and Paul Ryan, however, get eleven minutes to deliver their comments. Former presidential candidate Rick Santorum is scheduled for a mere seven minutes.
The biggest winners in the time lottery are Sarah Palin (16 minutes) and Donald Trump (14 minutes). Palin and Trump are expected to be crowd-pleasers at CPAC: News of their respective appearances caused ticket sales to spike, according to a source.
However, these differences arent large, and, of course, speakers may well go over or under their allotted time. Nor is the speech on the main stage the only chance politicians necessarily have with attendees...

Hey, you could write for Slate or Esquire.
Same here, who is Trump in republican politics?
I don’t even know if Trump is conservative, other than he hates Obama.
An awful lot of Republicans will be present at CPAC.
Hell an awful lot of Republicans here on these Sarah threads.
How many Conservatives will show up?
Don’t get your pantie’s in a wad. Its only a minute or two. I am more interested in what they have to say— Heck, I wouldn’t mind if Glen Beck was speaking for 40 minutes. I do like/admire Trump and I wish Sarah would comeback and serve in Congress. The GOP needs to change—and needs to change today. Listen well to what these worthies have to say. The old ways will not work in Obama’s America.
I will be attending ad blogging from CPAC for the Big Websites this year.
30 seconds.
The Republican Party of Florida needs to changer their logo. When I saw RPOF, I read it like a vanity plate for: Rip Off.
Sarah is Busy Today Ping!

Trump? seriously?
You are too sweet Onyx!!!!
I don't know what I did to get a FRiend like you!
As long as he hates Obama, that's good enough for me. You know, the enemy of my enemy is my friend.
Ditto. He also forced barry to produce a 2nd fraudulent “birth certificate”.
Did that do any harm to the “one”?......not yet.
I wasnt to add that Palin is finally back up on popular keywords on Free Republic. Rand Paul has been added as well. Santorum in red bold is gone. Go Palin.
