CPAC 2010 is where most conservative Republicans gather to express their opinions and
beliefs when it comes to conservative issues. It does not seem like the CPAC would be
somewhere that you’d find online gambling or any company that supports online gambling.

Poker Players Alliance (PPA), an organization that defends poker rights had
cosponsored the Conservative Political Action Conference this year. Poker players
are reaching out to conservatives in an effort to protect the online poker industry
from angry politicians that are doing whatever they can to destroy the industry.

As a shock to some, many of the attendees of CPAC were supportive of the PPA’s agenda
and believe that Americans should have the right to play poker. The PPA was prepared for
this years CPAC and provided literature to point why conservatives should support the
poker industry. Poker professional, Greg Raymer was also there to sign autographs.

CPAC 2010 will feature Glen Beck as the featured speaker this year. CPAC is
an annual convention for conservative activitists that first started in 1973.
CPAC is sponsored by the American Conservatives Union and other conservative
organizations. It’s typically a political convention for conservative Republicans.

Their are some good conservative ideas, opinions, and plans that come out of the
yearly conference, but conservatives tend to have an anti-gambling stance. Some
of the most prominent Republican congressmen worked hard to ban online gambling,
and some of these same Republicans were architects of the UIGEA legislation.

While conservatives tend to push for limited government, they also tend to
push for restrictions against online gambling and other issues on moral
grounds. Experts speculate that online gambling won’t be much of a topic
at this year’s CPAC, but as the tide turns for the online gambling industry,
it would be nice to see conservatives endorsing online gambling initiatives.
