Would Margaret Thatcher cry the day before every big primary if she was a U.S. politician running for the Democratic or Republican nomination?

1. I don't know.
It's hard to predict the behavior of someone who is mentally ill.

4. I know how much you idolize Ms. Thatcher.
But come on. She didn't have a heart. Hillary does.
Simple as that.

7. roflmao
Now Margaret Thatcher is a Democratic role-model?

Wow. When you guys talk about "unity" with Republicans, are you sure you don't just mean mind-melding with them?

8. Thatcher cried when her cabinet forced her to leave office.
But I don't think we should be holding up Margaret Thatcher as a political role-model.

9. Ouch
A right wing friend of mine frequently brings up Ayn Rands essay on why a woman should never be president. I feel that they are crocodile tears which are a means to her ultimate end, the presidency.
