I don't doubt she's a good propagandist....
Reagan may have been a smiling buffoon but he certainly had some very talented people propping him up. Both Edwin Meese and Caspar Weinberg turned the art of hardball politics into an exact science. Peggy Noonan understood to 7 significant digits the mindless nature of the American public. Her speeches were written for idiots but played extremely well on Mainstreet, USA. It's a tribute to our Constitution that the nation survived such sophisticated demagogues.
