A report from inside the sanctum sanctorum:

Attendance: 130.

Amount raised: About $100,000 (@ $250 per plate and $1,000 for a photo opp.)

Talking points: About carrying Arkansas in 2000 and 2004. How important the state is for GOP in 2008. Tax cuts. Staying on the offensive on war on terror. In praise of military.
