 <title>Clinton and the Gender Card: Perspectives </title>

 <description>&lt;p&gt;Feminist leader &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.wimnonline.org/WIMNsVoicesBlog/?p=864&quot;&gt; Gloria Feldt &lt;/a&gt;writes that the furor about Hillary Clinton and the gender card (see &lt;a href=&quot;http://thecaucus.blogs.nytimes.com/2007/11/02/clintons-pile-on-politics/?hp&quot;&gt;Pile On &lt;/a&gt;video) is a process of &lt;strong&gt; “desensitization” &lt;/strong&gt;: we’re all trying to work out our collective discomfort with such a powerful woman. It’s new to all of us, so we have to talk about it, and often screw up. I agree with that. But it’s hurting the candidate. What so many pundits see as &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.govexec.com/dailyfed/0907/091107op.htm&quot;&gt;&quot;surefootedness&quot; &lt;/a&gt; is a calculated means not to alienate confused voters and a ravenous press. &lt;/p&gt;
