Our opening General Session will be more exciting than ever as we welcome James Carville and Mary Matalin to the stage. Washington's most well-known power couple will provide an enlightening and entertaining look at today's most important political issues as well as a behind-the-scenes look at Washington politics, including their take on the upcoming election cycle. Co-authors of the national best seller, All's Fair: Love, War and Running for President, both Matalin and Carville are key players on the national political stage, having between them worked for every president over the last 25 years. In this dramatic appearance, Carville and Matalin will combine their unique experience as perennial political insiders to provide you with a stimulating, candid and provocative analysis of the day's headlines and today's hot-button political issues from both sides of the political aisle for a lively and engaging exchange of views. About James Carville--incisive, insightful and entertaining, James Carville is renowned for his razor-sharp wit and penetrating examination of the political world. Known as the "Ragin' Cajun," Carville is bombastic, enthusiastic, and shoots straight-from-the-hip. He has devised the most dramatic political victories of our generation including serving as the mastermind behind Clinton's presidential campaign. About Mary Matalin--one of the nation's hardest-hitting conservative political commentators, Mary Matalin has slugged it out in the political trenches as an election-time political strategist and as a trusted advisor to the corridors of power including serving as deputy campaign manager for President George Bush, Sr.'s 1988 re-election bid. She also served concurrently as counselor to Vice President Cheney and assistant to President George W. Bush.
