Conservative columnist Ann Coulter is on the lineup March 8, the ACU reports. She is scheduled to debate The Daily Caller's Mickey Kaus, who identifies himself as a "neoliberal."

Fiorina, Martin, and Palin will have key speaking spots. Fiorina will present the conference's opening remarks on March 6. Martin will give opening remarks on March 8, and Palin will give the conference's final speech later that day.

Just what does anyone here care about what hapens at CPAC? Once upon a time, maybe, CPAC was a good organization. They have since joined the Republican Division of the Democrat Party.

No. It’s CPAC, and that has become a nest of frauds and phonies.

Disappointed to see Palin going there.

Good eye opening article about CPAC and the capitulation of conservatism. Big tent tactics are the stake through the heart of conservatives. Don’t support the new and improved CPAC.
