I think Reagan did atleast 2 terms of governor in California before concentrating full time to run for President.
Palin has served just a bit more than half her first term, so I dont know what political career she has in mind but definetly it doesn’ look like a Presidential run.
Eight months ago, with eight months less of Alaska governing experience, and teaming with a real dud, she ran for VP and came within six or seven points of winning that office.
Perhaps you think that serving as a lame duck Alaska governor for another 18 months will make Sarah more qualified to run for President. Watching her speak today, I don't think she thinks that way.

People wanted Reagan in 68! He had been Governor for only 2 years but handled the chaos (berkeley,etc.)of 1967-68 well.
Timing is everything. Palin can beat BO by declaring war on elitism-which has almost bankrupted the country.
Palin: The past 20 we’ve been governed on 12 trillion in borrowed money.
What the hell is so smart about that?
