Eh, no need to apologize. it’s just one of those phrases, like “Gyp”, that people use without stopping to think of the origins of it. I know you weren’t saying that she was crap because she was poor or raised poor, rather that she had an insular view, is proud of her ignorance, etc.

Alternatively, the ‘white trash’ label, while classist as all get out, really does apply to Sarah Palin, in part because it’s a descriptor of which she herself is cognizant, even though she’d probably never use that word in a sentence herself.
