Hillary v Rob

Pallone ... who is this clown?
So Hillary and Andrews voted for the Iraq War authorization. However, Hillary's vote is apparently different in Pallone's opinion. Hillary no longer supports it. As far as I know, Andrews does not support it either. So how are they different? Let me hear this tape again ... Nothing, I am so confused. This Pallone is a clown.
Clear Difference
There is a clear difference between Rob Andrews and Hillary Clinton.
Rob Andrews helped write the authorizing legislation and was an advocate for this war.
HRC voted for the war resolution and quickly realized that the President had no plan for the aftermath of the invasion leading to her advocating for a withdrawl.
By the by, Frank Pallone voted against the war and has consistently voting against war spending.
