How is this woman anywhere close to Reagan?

By standing clear on principle and going over the heads of the media and directly to the people, she shares that trait with Reagan.

Do you think that Ronald Reagan under any circumstances would have resigned as Governor because the going got tough and in his first term as Sarah Palin did?

Reagan would have appreciated what Palin did. She resigned to put the state and the people ahead of the vicious politics of leftist bloggers and other operatives of Obama that were preventing her from doing her job.

I like Gov. Palin but I don't see her as the solution or future right now.

Right now, she is the ONLY Republican who is capable of fighting back against Obama's socialist agenda and one who is simultaneously outlining clear, no-compromise conservative goals. If you can find me another Republican - a Governor or ex-Governor - who is able to unite the grassroots and fight back against the Dems I'd be more than happy to support him too.

I would have to see a lot more than I have to come to that conclusion.

You should look no further than what Palin has accomplished since she resigned from office. Other politicians would have been forgotten by now, but what Palin has done is nothing short of a miracle.

I don't agree.
Your making way too many excuses.
She was the only positive in McCain's campaign but the more I look at her I am not sure.
She left office, got a very lucrative book deal, will be a demand on the talk circuit then what?
Is she actually going to run for President? Right now I don't think so.
Sure she might campaign some but so far as done very little.
I have to take a wait and see with her to see what she does and I do want to read her book to see what is there also.
But as far as being a female Ronald Reagan or a Lady Thatcher at this point she is neither and won't be.
Your like a lot of Conservatives right now looking for a leader and hope and right now the cupboard is bare.
