And nary a one, including Mrs Palin, comparable to Jefferson or Reagan.
The bar needs to be raised. Yet I'm afraid it won't be until the American voter learns the hard way.

I’m afraid that if you are waiting for Reagan or Jefferson, you are going to be disappointed every election cycle. There are no more clear choices, only varying degrees of “suck.” We happen to have three decent candidates in the race right now, any of whom would do a heck of a lot better job that Obama. We have one, possibly two candidates waiting in the wings that could sweep in and turn the whole race on it’s ear AND either of them would landslide Obama.
But as far as being a Reagan? Nope. Not a one of ‘em. Just varying degrees of “suckitude” and our job is to pick the one in the primary that sucks the least. In the general, I will consider the G.O.P. candidate. If it is not named Huntsman, I will consider even voting for him/her. I wouldn’t cast a vote for Huntsman even to keep Obama from another 4 years.
