I'm guessing that Reagan's rating will continue to fall off with
historical perspective. Think of him as the inspirational speaker
that has you agreeing with him emphatically as he plies his trade,
but once you have a chance to mull over his words you aren't so
sure. Reagan was good at convincing us that he was among the best,
but with a few years to think about it, it becomes apparent that he
was little better than mediocre.
