Hillary's in a no-win situation with regards to the war issue. If she apologizes for her vote, as John Edwards did, she'll get called spineless. If you voted for an illegal war, what good is an apology other than as pandering? Yet if she doesn't apologize, she is accused of lacking the courage of her convictions and not taking the politically painful position. Damned if she does, damned if she doesn't. I think it is probably harder to do what she's doing, not apologizing and continuing to take the heat, than to do what Edwards did. It would be easy to apologize like Edwards. It would take the heat off of her. But evidently she doesn't think that it would be the right thing to do. It doesn't sound like a political calculation to me. It sounds like she thinks she'd have less integrity if she apologized.
