The cost of insurance is not a deductible personal expense. Doesn't matter whether you're talking about insurance on your home, life, auto... whatever.

Actually, a portion of the PMI IS now deductible on the 2008 return; recent change in the tax law.

Because Congress chose to only allow some PMI to be deductible.
