Another e-mail from someone looking forward to the National Review Institute Conservative Summit this weekend:

Regarding your query as to what attendees hope to get out of the summit, here’s my short list:
– An opportunity to hear from, and meet, pundits and pols, from Gingrich, to Romney, to Mark Steyn.
– Late night ad-libbing from Jonah…’nuff said.
– The ability to participate in a discussion of where conservatism is going (or needs to go, or has to go), and to hear from a variety of conservative figures on the subject.
In addition to the above, this is a great opportunity to be a part of something akin to the always fabulous-looking NR cruises, without the sticker shock. And since it’s close to home (I’m in Leesburg, VA), it’s all the more affordable manageable. I’m really looking forward to the summit, as I’m sure it’ll be great and informative.
