W-O-M-E-N.

Interesting. From Matt Stoller on Open Left:

The Democratic electorate is dominated by women, and Clinton's lead is coming from educated women moving her way from Obama. It turns out that John Edwards and Barack Obama have a mostly male senior staff, while Hillary Clinton has a more even staff, with a slight weighting towards women.

It's bad strategy not to have a diverse senior staff when the electorate is diverse. It's even more of a problem to have a senior staff of mostly men when the voters you need are women.
