Palin is good - but she isn’t battle-tested at the National level yet. Thatcher, Reagan, everyone knew who they were, and they earned their reputation after doing battle at the national level Reagan/Thatcher had failures, and also many more successes and only when we were able to add these up, did we know they were great.
Palin is a fresh-face, and we are investing her with a lot of our hopes. Her challenge now is not to let the campaign to smear her take hold. So far, she has beaten it back.

Excuse me, but do you know what Reagan was doing when he was 44 years old...let me remind you, he was hosting The General Electric Theater and a spokesman for GE.
I am a big fan of RR, but he was hardly politically “battle-tested” at that point in his life. LOL
