Hardly. Either of them.
But will Thatcher explain to Palin her lifelong support for abortion up to birth, which she ensured became the law of this land while she was Prime Minister, with her proxies specifically and repeatedly citing the existence of Down's Syndrome as the reason why it was necessary, as they still do?
And will Palin explain to Thatcher her admirable history as a Buchananite battler for job protection, for war aversion, for immigration control and for family values against the archenemy of all of them, the global "free" market, together with her record as Governor of Alaska on the basis of publicly administered natural resources held in common ownership?
They are both overrated. But Palin is the better of the two.

While I have a feeling Sarah Palin’s political career has now devolved into a campaign for more wealth and fame, she at least has that homespun touch.
ReplyDeleteMitt Romney is a rather uninspiring figure and the Republicans can’t really run a cold figure like Thatcher and win because they rely so much on former New Deal Democrats who are still populists at heart.
I am really sad that Mike Huckabee is not running, I might have voted for him as he was good on social issues and economic issues as Governor of Arkansas.
