Just out of curiosity: Why is it possible to compile Common Lisp Code (or Scheme, or Clojure) to high-performance native or jit-compiled code, but not Python? It is said that "Python is too dynamic", but is not everything in Lisp dynamic, too?

And none of these languages is less powerful than Lisp, lack Unicode support, or whatever, so this can't be the reason.
