exactly and that also is in part why McCain didn't get many votes from the Black community...most of us can't relate to him and surely even fewer can relate or agree with Palin and her policies.....
Altho having a teen duaghter pregnant and a drop out son in law (still babydaddy at this point tho) does give her a tiny bit of street cred.....
