Edwards has admitted the mistake for voting for the war authorization - certainly not the same as "voting for the war" (right-wing spin) but close. I don't think Clinton has admitted her mistake yet. Many Democrats are waiting for it. Bush and most of his supporters certainly haven't.

I can't trust people like that, while I trust those who live up to the mistake.
it's called integrity.

That would exclude nearly all Republicans by this standard. You're still left with Obama, Edwards (admitted a mistake) and the 133 House members and 23 Senators who voted against the authorization.
