A chilling shot from Conservative Talk Radio Bootcamp

The very first attendees to arrive at the annual Conservative Talk Radio Bootcamp in Arlington, Virginia were greeted by this mammoth Derf Kimbrough ice sculpture at the entrance to the host Red Roof Suites Hotel.

The searing heat of summer quickly melted the sculpture into a swampy puddle, but it lasted for longer than a Kimbrough "Best of" show, which the crowd interpreted as a remarkable feat.

More pictures and summaries of Conservative Talk Radio Bootcamp events will be appearing tomorrow here at All The Excess!
