But Obama has an opening for a very effective challenge to Hillary over the war if he uses the half-hour interview she gave The New York Times in her Senate office on March 14th of this year. In that on-the-record session, Hillary let slip her real colors on Iraq, revealing her essentially hawkish approach to the issue.
She said that she foresees a “remaining military, as well as political, mission” in Iraq. She said she “would keep a reduced but significant military force there to fight al Qaeda, deter Iranian aggression, protect the Kurds and possibly support the Iraqi military.”
While noting that in public Sen. Clinton backs the goal of “bringing the troops home,” the newspaper said that she took a “more nuanced position” in the interview and spoke of the “remaining vital national security interests in Iraq” that would require an ongoing deployment of troops.
That interview, a major mistake by Clinton, provides enough of an opening to drive a truck through and gives Obama a perfect way to position himself vis-à-vis her.

Nothing like a POed advisor to be able to show the world your flaws!
