What's Mitt Romney going to say at CPAC? 'Thank you

Just in from the American Conservative Union, regarding its annual Conservative Political Action Conference:

“The thousands gathered at CPAC this year are eager to hear from the 2012 GOP presidential candidate at his first public appearance since the elections,” said ACU Chairman Al Cardenas. “We look forward to hearing Governor Romney’s comments on the current state of affairs in America and the world, and his perspective on the future of the conservative movement.”

“I look forward to saying thank you to the many friends and supporters who were instrumental in helping my campaign,” said former Governor Mitt Romney.

Romney spoke at both the 2008 and 2012 conferences.

Sarah Palin and Rick Santorum, both of whom offered near-minimal support for Romney during the 2012 election, will also speak at CPAC.

The conference runs Mar. 14-16.
