With CPAC scheduled to begin in less than three weeks, ACU Chairman David Keene has yet to announce who will be the main speaker.

ACU did not respond to WND’s query today asking who would deliver the headline address at CPAC, which is scheduled to begin Feb. 10.

Dogged by a financial scandal and decisions to invite a homosexual activist organization and a group allegedly linked to Muslim jihadists, ACU apparently is struggling to find a conservative luminary who can draw crowds to this year’s conference.

Limbaugh, Savage and Hannity, perhaps the three most prominent conservative talk show hosts in the United States, have all confirmed to WND they do not plan to speak at CPAC this year.

“No,” Hannity and Savage replied tersely to e-mail inquiries. Limbaugh spokesman Kit Carson wrote back, “Nope. Schedule wouldn’t allow it.”

Only one potential headliner contacted by WND, possible presidential candidate U.S. Rep. Michele Bachmann, R-Minn., plans to speak at CPAC.

“She will attend CPAC,” said Doug Sachtleben, Bachmann’s communications director, who added that Bachmann plans to deliver a speech at the conference. Bachmann joins fellow possible GOP presidential contenders Newt Gingrich, Tim Pawlenty and Mitt Romney as confirmed speakers at CPAC.
