The Clintons' Mistake

They simply misjudged the mood. By focusing on the Penn-trees, they missed the Obama-forest:

Another adviser said Mr. Penn and Mr. Clinton were consumed with polling data for so long, they did not fully grasp the personality deficit that Mrs. Clinton had with voters.

Obama's victory over Clinton in Iowa reminds me ever-so-slightly of how Bill Clinton once beat George H. W. Bush. And that's got to hurt.
