(Though I hear on NPR that they're very interesting.) I just read part 2 of your defense of HRC, and I agree with everything you said. (But I still like Obama better.)<BR/><BR/>This is a little off-topic, but I'm getting a sense that this race is starting to be seen as a referendum as to whether sexism or racism is more pronounced in America, and that the treatment of HRC shows that sexism is winning. (Do you get that sense? Am I getting it from you?) While the primary season has made clear that blatant out-in-the-open sexism is more widely accepted, I don't think that means that racism has largely been overcome, while sexism flourishes. It might actually mean the opposite: that racism remains such an evil, destructive, and prevalent force that people are rightfully afraid of any whiff of association with it, while sexism is seen (correctly or not) as in a weakened enough state as to be a little less shameful.
