Matt Drudge is among the many admirers around the world mourning the Iron Lady’s passing. But for him, Margaret Thatcher’s death not only marks the loss of a tremendous woman and champion of liberty; it also draws attention to the dearth of true leadership in today’s world.

It certainly does.

Lady Thatcher leaves behind an incredible legacy. Will another leader emerge who is worthy — and capable — of carrying her torch? We can only hope.
