12. I don't think she fails to understand it,

because her and Bill started at the local level in Arkansas, and they had a formidable grassroots organization in 1992.

I think she and her team grossly underestimated the Obama campaign. She portrayed the aura of inevitability, and then bought into it. By the time Obama and Edwards rolled her in Iowa, it was too late.

She doesn't even have a full slate of delegates from Pennsylvania, because she figured she would have had the nomination locked up on Super Tuesday.
