That isn't true.[1] She's admitted it was a mistake and not because she believed the wmd lies. I still think it was a political vote, though.
Clinton acknowledged, as she has on previous occasions, that she’d made a mistake. But she also offered an explanation for her vote, something she has rarely done in the past. President Bush, she told the audience, had made a “very explicit appeal” that “getting this vote would be a strong piece of leverage in order to finish the inspections.”

She admitted it was a mistake 14 years later. By that point it would have been just about political suicide as a Democrat to say that she stood by her vote.
