Well Gibson didn't really press her on it either. She stated support for a policy of pre-emptive attack, which has been the policy for generations. If there is overwhelming evidence of a strike, the US policy has never been that we have to be hit first.
What makes the Bush doctrine different, and what she failed to address, is that now the policy is that we don't have to wait for threats to develop. Remember the whole, smoking gun may be a mushroom cloud stuff? That's what she should have been pressed on as that's the significant difference in US policy over the last eight years.
