Hillary says war vote was a mistake.

Well, she sort of says it. Unlike John Edwards' straightforward statement "It was a mistake," she does it with qualifiers and twisty language. Doesn't she remember the GOP making hay out of that when Gore and Kerry did it?

"I believe we are at a critical point with the Dec. 15 elections that should, if successful, allow us to start bringing home our troops in the coming year, while leaving behind a smaller contingent in safer areas with greater intelligence and quick strike capabilities," she wrote. "I call on the president both for such a plan and for a full and honest accounting of the failures of intelligence - something we owe not only to those killed and wounded and their families, but to all Americans."

MyDD has plenty of analysis of the statement-- more than I'd care to write, anyway. For the most part, the blogs seem to be aggressively apathetic about her candidacy. The only people I know who concern themselves with it are Republicans already licking their chopsat the chance to do some Clinton-bashing. Most progressive bloggers are thinking Clark, Feingold and Edwards at this point.
