Balanced well sourced news analysis on the issue of feminism in the Democratic primary.

Interesting to see if the rhetoric dies down about the new meaning of stay at home moms on Election Day. The similarities between Clinton and Obama on issues made it hard to find significant policy differences between them during the campaign.
