1. Donald Regan or Ronald Reagan? n/t

[Ken Burch]

3. She may not be sure.

Or it could be Regan in "King Lear"...but I don't think she ever read that.

[Quixote1818]

2. Not sure if Palin could do as much damage as Reagan did

No one would take her seriously. Reagan was just sharp enough to do a lot of damage that we are still paying for.

4. Maru Kitteh to Noonan on Reagan AND Palin:

They are both nincompoopies.

5. Ooh, Peggy, get ready for an epic Twitter smackdown.

6. Palin's still trying to sound out the word "nincompoop"

She might manage to figure it out by 9 PM though

[BurtWorm]

7. Something like "Ohh, Peggy, I'm flattered you think I'm worthy of your commentature.'

8. Palin "paid no dues" to earn her status, she is "instant" v. "from scratch".

[DavidDvorkin]

10. Noonan is half right.

[underpants]

11. Yes but the Repub establishment *has to* strike now to keep the Tea Baggers down

they can't wait until the "Tea Party favored" candidates get in office.

this is a public screech of what is surely going on behind the scenes.

12. i'll be happy when the media chooses to ignore her. that's the way to shut her up

repeating her name only supports her
