Try searching for Wen Jiabao ("温家宝" in Chinese)[0] on Sina Weibo Search[1], and you get:

Similar results can be observed with Mao Zedong (毛泽东), Jiang Zemin (江泽民), and Deng Xiaoping (邓小平), all past "Paramount Leaders"[5], as well as Hu Jintao (胡锦涛)[2], the current Paramount Leader, Xi Jinping (习近平)[6], rumored to be the next Paramount Leader. So is Wang Yang (汪洋)[4], the Guangdong Party Chief and likely a big shot in the next generation, alongside Xi Jinping.
Bo Xilai (薄熙来)[3] and Wang Lijun (王立军), recently disgraced officials, are acceptable. Oddly, so is Hua Guofeng (华国锋), a Paramount Leader from the 70s and 80s.
Edit: from Wikipedia[7]:
> because of his insistence on continuing the Maoist line, he was himself outmaneuvered in December 1978 by Deng Xiaoping, a pragmatic reformer, who forced Hua into early retirement. As Hua faded into political obscurity, he continued to insist on the correctness of Maoist principles. He is remembered as a largely benign transitional figure in modern Chinese political history.

Perhaps he is sort of seen as disgraced as well.
