"In the most important vote of her life, Hillary Clinton was wrong."

(emphasis mine)

Today we are asked whether to give the President of the United States authority to use force in Iraq...

President Bush's speech in Cincinnati and the changes in policy that have come forth since the Administration began broaching this issue some weeks ago have made my vote easier.

This is a very difficult vote. This is probably the hardest decision I have ever had to make -- any vote that may lead to war should be hard -- but I cast it with conviction.

And she was wrong.  And she refuses to admit it.

The Democratic Party simply cannot afford to have a nominee who is this wishy-washy about such a critical issue.  That's why, if we're serious about winning in November, and if we're serious about ending the conflict in Iraq, she cannot be our nominee.
