"I never hear anyone talking talking about Obama's cloths. If I have heard one pantsuit joke I have heard a thousand so I think it did play a big part. It has not been overt most of the time but it has always been there."
No you haven't heard about Obama's clothes...but you sure as hell have heard about the color of his skin.
I don't think gender was an issue in the democratic primary, whereas in a general election against a white male, it may have become an issue. But in an election where her opponent was a black person, I think race is more of a concern to more people than gender.
