“You folks really need to get over the Reagan analogy. It does not even come close to applying to Sarah’s situation”
The Reagan analogy comes from Palin’s policy beliefs. Name the Republican among the current field who’s views are closer to Reagan. I will gladly compare and contrast their views with Palin and Reagan.
But again, you keep coming back to polls, telling us that we shouldn’t support Palin because her polling is lower. Well, the latest PPP poll has Obama at 47 percent against Palin and 46 percent against Perry - not a big difference. PPP also released a poll 2 weeks ago that has Palin up over Obama by 14 points among independents in North Carolina. How does your candidate stack up? Rasmussen conducted a poll and asked who’s views are closer to your own, Obama or Palin...results - Palin 52% — Obama 40% — all before Obama’s polls tanked.
Tell us who you support so everyone can judge for themselves.
But that is not the analogy people always want to make. They want to argue that because Reagan was able to wait until November to declare, that Sarah can do so also. Or argue that because Reagan was far behind at one point, that Sarah's poll numbers don't matter. Those are not relevant analogies for a number of reasons, all of which have been explained repeatedly on this forum.

Would you care to link to that poll? I checked the PPP website, and the last national poll of Obama against the GOP field did not include Palin at all.
