Palin backs out of CPAC

Conservatives lose erections and go into mourning:

"Heart-ache: Palin backs out of CPAC

The opening-day headliner for the annual CPAC conservative convention February 26-28, Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin, has pulled out, citing state business in Juneau. “We’re obviously disappointed,” said a CPAC official. A spokesman for the three-day confab, organized by the American Conservative Union Foundation and others, said that Palin, the popular former vice presidential nominee, had indicated she would be able to attend but cited “duties of governing” in bowing out. Instead, she will send in a taped message."

4. This seems odd
She bowed out of a media event to do her job? I'm having a hard time believing that.

12. Her PAC is probably telling her that the less time she spends talking
the better her chances are in 2012

8. I just realized I'll be in DC at the same time as CPAC.
For an entirely different conference, obviously.

Taking suggestions for what kind of mischief I should engage in...

9. Dress in drag as Sarah Palin
Or, get one of your friends to do it, and you can go as First Dude Todd. See how many autograph requests you can get.
