agreed.
It seems like his handlers told him "if this question comes up, side step it, redirect it, don't apologize for anything". It's a mistake in my opinion.
He had to know that question was coming...i mean, we lowly developers prepare for that question when we're getting ready for a job interview!!!
(My favorite answer to the "one weakness question" by the way is: I sometimes have a problem being on time for work.....*pause*.....i'm usually early)

Leaving aside the generals issue, I agree with the sentiment of the
article, in that Bush's inability to answer that question reflected
pretty poorly on him, and his handlers. I mean, he had to know that
that question would come up. Hell, it comes up in darn near every
interview. It's essentially "tell us about a time a project failed" or
"what are your weaknesses." It was a political mis-step to not have
been prepared with at least one instance in which he made a trivial
error, which he could explain and even maybe laugh about.
