Your element is not visible. Thats the reason Selenium couldn't able to click on it.
Are you sure the element is visible? According to Selenium an element is visible if:
visibility != hidden
display != none (is also checked against every parent element)
opacity != 0 (this is not checked for clicking an element)
height and width are both > 0
for an input, the attribute type != hidden
See here for more info.
