Now, with Barack Obama the victor, many of the New York senator's female supporters are deeply frustrated, and wondering when the chance to elect a woman president will arise again. Their frustration is compounded by a sense that sexism and misogyny tinged the campaign. It's harder to gauge the feelings of the too-young-to-vote set, as pollsters don't reach out to them. But teachers who have been listening to them in the classroom all year say their female students haven't experienced overt gender discrimination in their lives, and thus didn't see Mrs. Clinton's historic quest through that prism. Indeed, the word "historic," so ubiquitous in coverage of this race, comes up rarely in these conversations. "These kids are growing up differently than in the past. They don't have a view of limitations on women," says Michael Yell, a middle school teacher in Hudson, Wis. "I just don't think gender bias is on their radar at this age. But racial bias is, so that's one of the appeals of Barack Obama."
