Conservatives Warned: Don't Boo McCain!
CPAC is trying to avoid the embarrassment of having the GOP's likely presidential candidate booed off the stage, Politico reports:

John McCain may have it easier than he expected today when he commandeers the podium at CPAC this afternoon. Conservatives from all over will predictably fill the room to the brim to listen to what the now GOP front-runner has to say, despite a hate/love relationship with the guy.

CPAC it seems, is directing its loyal goers to not boo McCain. They must be more excited that McCain has finally signed on to appear after years of snubs than they want to let on.

During registration last night at the Omni Shoreham a registrant was asking to upgrade his CPAC package and then proceeded to ask what time GOP front-runner John McCain was going to speak today. "Oh good," he said to the response -- answer: 3 p.m. today-- "I hope they boo him out of the room."

"No, no no no no" came the reply from the person registering him. "We've been instructed to tell participants not to boo McCain."

6. But they booed him anyway!!!!
Does this spell trouble for McCain? Or does the GOP expect him to lose and would rather it be him than some more conservative darling?
