Are we attacking community organizers now?

I watched VP Palin's speech last night, and she attacked Obama by saying community organizers do not have any real responsbilities. Isn't she attacking her base as well by making such a comment? Not that she would lose any evangelical voters as a result. I think more evangelicals would vote for her because she goes to church, then women who would vote for her because she is a woman. Already I can tell that this election will become an election of ideologies (again), and not the issues. I am just curious if her comment will become an issue because a lot of community organizers, especially in small towns like mine, come from churches, schools, or the YMCA; not the government. And isn't the PTA a community organization itself? If that's correct then she attacked herself.
