PPA attending the Conservative Political Action Conference (CPAC) for fourth consecutive year

PPA will be attending the Conservative Political Action Conference in Washington D.C. again this year. Info on the event is at http://cpac2012.conservative.org.

The conference will be Feb. 9th - 11th in Washington, D.C., at the Marriott Wardman Park. I'll be there, as will John Pappas, Drew Lesofski, and Greg Raymer. We'll have a booth in the exhibition hall. I hope everyone in the area will drop by and say "hi".

I'll be flying to Washington D.C. shortly to represent poker players at this year's Conservative Political Action Conference (CPAC). Should be interesting!

Re: PPA attending the Conservative Political Action Conference (CPAC) for fourth consecutive ye

You have your work cut out for you this year. The Conservative GOP presidential trend seems ANTI-ipoker, at least publicly.

Can you set a goal of getting one or two prominent Conservatives to endorse Federal or State legislation, publicly, at the Conference ?

(I mean someone new, other than Representative Joe "Highway to Nowhere" Barton.).

I'm actually going to attend the Indian Affairs Committee hearing. I'm looking forward to Patrick delivering our message loud and clear!
