Jeans? On Election Day?

Maybe I am alone in this thinking. Forgive me if I am...

I have a raging cnn.com addiction and I've been checking the news today like a freak. There have been pictures posted of the candidates voting this morning. Photos of McCain, Biden and Obama showed them dressed up in suits. A picture of Palin showed her wearing jeans and a sweatshirt. Perhaps her attire is a testament to her "Main Street" appeal, but don't you think she would want to look professional and like a world leader on the most important day of her life? Is this really the last impression she wants to make on the American public before they potentially vote her into office?

Even I (not running for an office today) managed to clean myself up this morning and put on some pin stripe pants and a blazer before heading to the poles and off to work. She couldn't do the same?

She essentially showed up at her job interview with the American public wearing jeans. That doesn't sit well with me.

**UPDATE

Total OMG moment. I was wrong about the sweatshirt. It was actually a Carhart jacket.

Sweet.
