He could be (I'm not saying he is, just a hypothetical here) the very best candidate that WP could ever hope to field; fearless, fair, polite and astute... but there is no way I could ever put a tick in a box next to the name "Thatcher". An instance of a real life bias effecting a WP decision, and I am unable to overcome it.
What is it that makes you unable to tick?
Personally, I found Thatcher conceded too much to the "fringe" side of a debate I was in, he also doesn't seem very friendly but that's just what I personally like in people.
