Palin vs. other Politicians: A brief thought in passing

Would it really be so bad to have someone in the White House who strikes me as an average person?

Someone who's not a millionaire, male, white, D.C. insider, etc etc?

It's not like she's running the whole show and with the current economic meltdown and the war in Iraq (let's not forget Afghanistan, the Iraq war's little brother) could she do a worse job?

I mean no offense to Palin, but I could stand a little 'average American' if this is what the opposite gets you.
