Is her record that squeeky clean that we can’t talk about hers, just Perry’s and Romney’s?
However you see her, the comparison to Reagan on any level is childish and insulting.
I don’t doubt her conservative credentials, but she is not the savior of the nation.
She’s a decent half-term governor who was party to a losing ticket. Nothing more.
Reagan was a great man, but he was a man. Not a god. I think he'd be the first to ask us to not treat him that way.
The comparisons that some have made between Palin and Reagan are entirely apt. They share a great many personality traits, and the track of their lives and accomplishments are on the same vector.
Palin is also completely candid about the fact that she has purposely followed in his footsteps. It shouldn't surprise anyone that she does and says things reminiscent of that great man.
Her nearly unprecedented popularity with the public is a strong indicator that she's learned well from her mentor.
