Thatcher has had a series of small strokes over the last 10 years. She had has a fall not long ago where she broke her arm, and she had to be told her children’s names, and also had to be reminded that her husband Dennis had long since passed away.

That said, Palin is no Thatcher. Sarah Palin is only potential at this stage; Margaret Thatcher actually had the experience of leading a nation for almost 12 years. Thatcher actually stopped and reversed flat out Socialism in Britain. Palin is only an aspirant at this stage. Thatcher has actually walked the walk. Once Palin actually does, then the comparisons can flow. They have no merit at this point.

Nobody SAID Sarah was Maggie Thatcher!
She and Lady Thatcher have a lot in common as they are both conservative women and at this stage that's plenty.
BUT NOBODY SAID PALIN WAS MAGGIE THATCHER!

What,are you another Romney droid looking for any excuse to bash Palin too?

Whoa Sparky. Take them off, untie them and put them back on.

I haven't seen anyone compare Palin's accomplishments to Lady Thatcher. The spirit, drive, the philosophy and the right person at the right time in history, perhaps, but not the accomplishments.

Um, no. Palin turned around Alaska. The governor of Alaska has powers that no other governor has. They are the CEO. Palin broke the oil and good ole boy network. In Aug 2008 she had a 88% approval from the voters.
