YCT - Day 2

I'm going to be skipping around the topics and speakers from day 2. This post focuses on the first speaker and the lunch keynote.

Political Trends
The first speaker of the day was Matt Gamble - research assistant at Baselice & Associates, Inc. It was a flashback to statistics class, but I bucked the zzzs and paid attention - enough to give you a basic synopsis - the dems are in trouble and the GOP is gaining ground. Amen.

Lunch Keynote - Michelle Malkin
A conservative goddess. My knees were literally wobbly when I walked up to her - and yes, she is THAT attractive! She signed my conservative ladies calendar, and she graciously took a picture with me - your humble Aztec wench. Boy, what a lady! Seriously. Truly nice and accommodating. She rocked. We didn't speak much, but I did manage to tell her that she acted and looked nothing like the 'knuckle-dragging, Islamohomophobic, mysoginistic bigot' the msm often portray her as.

Her speech.
Well, if I wasn't in love with her after our autograph encounter, I certainly was after the speech. She spoke of the overt corruption of the current regime, er administration. She spoke of activism and courage.

A YCT member asked her the question I had wanted to ask - how does she (the YCT member) - as a hispanic, spread the word? Malkin's response was - focus on the message - i.e., conservative principles - and NOT the messenger. Beautiful.
