Sarah Palin has undoubted political skills. In fact, that's what one should expect from someone who defeated an incumbent governor in the primary and a former governor in the general election.
But her common touch and winning speaking style do not mean she is a reincarnation of Ronald Reagan.

The opposition is scared.
Hey, Doug Bandow, Sarah’s a Christian. She doesn’t believe in reincarnation. And neither do we. Get a life.
Except that American Spectator is a conservative site.
Apparently the left consider everyday bash Sarah Palin day. So Sarah is NOT Ronald Reagan..well no sh*t sherlock..Sarah is Sarah and Ronnie was Ronnie
The Romneybots, RuPauls, and Hucksters are on the attack.
“...do not mean she is a reincarnation of Ronald Reagan.”
Do we really need to have someone tell us this?
For cryin’ out loud! Sarah Palin can’t get a break.
So show me someone who IS Ronald Reagan.
And Ronald Reagan wasn’t Sarah Palin. If she succeeds then it’s because of who she is and not who she reminds people of, accurately or inaccurately.
Thank you. Why so many feel the need to make the comparison is beyond me.
I have been saying this all along to much derision. Palin is the conservative flavor of the day. She is NOT presidential material.
Reagan was unique. Just as Sarah Palin is. Let the comparisons start and end there.
Even Ronald Reagan is not Ronald Reagan.
As typically happens when looking upon the past, each individual makes of the past what they want to see.
Reagan was good, but he made mistakes like everyone, as every President must do because that is part of politics.
So what is Sarah isn’t Regan.
Is she right for the job? I’ inclining toward a, “Yes,” but even I need to know more.
Is Obammie the Commie right for the job? Unequivocally, “HELL NO!!”
Is the candidate right for the job?
That’s the question that most seem incapable of asking and answering honestly.
Many of us conservatives like Sarah Palin, but want to get a look at the alternatives the next three years. Meanwhile a big faction here at FR want a coronation.
Thus the left hates her.
Well, since I don’t go on the site I had no idea what it was. When I saw the headline I automatically thought it was a smear job
And I aint Dolly Parton. What’s the point?
Ronald Reagan has undoubted political skills. In fact, that's what one should expect from someone who defeated an incumbent governor in the general election.
But his common touch and winning speaking style do not mean he is a reincarnation of Barry Goldwater.
Ronald Reagan lost his first time out. It took him a few years to find his voice. He was ridiculed before he won and after, and many of those detractors now praise him and ignore their own ignorance. Sound familiar?
True.
The BS starts after the word "but" as usual.
