Obama was not in a position to support the war or not support the war 
since he was serving in a state office at the time.
He has both claimed opposition and then claimed he wasn't sure what he 
would have done.
It is more than slightly interesting that when W was doing well in the 
polls Obama removed all anti-war statements from his website. It was at 
this time he claimed not to know how he would have voted. He blows with 
the winds quite easily even for a Dem.
