Andrew and I are done with the first day of the Conservative Leadership Conference, and we are both satisfied with the time we spent today.
It started with a discussion by Joni Eastley, Nye County, Nevada commissioner and Paul Seidler with the Nuclear Energy Institute. They talked about the future of nuclear energy, and gave me some ideas for future articles on this topic. Then, Michael Tanner with The Cato Institute gave a great presentation on American’s health care problems and socialized health care. One of the better talks of the day.
Sandra Fabry from the Americans for Tax Reform talked about government accountability and later, we had a talk with Seton Motley with the Media Research Center about the importance of this election in regards to freedom of speech, the press and the “Fairness Doctrine.” This was a great presentation. More than once Seton had Andrew and me laughing out loud.
A great part of this conference is meeting with the speakers following the presentations. There were some very intelligent and informed people here today.
The day ended with a cocktail reception where Andrew and I met Eric Odom, Elizabeth Crum of E! The True Conservative Story, and some other great people.
I am really looking forward to the rest of the conference, coupled with the Blog World Expo.
