I know the contexts are different, but isn't the question a bit more like the old interview q: "what's your biggest weakness as an employee"?
The right answer is not "I don't have any" but rather, to chew your lip, hem, haw, and come up with something that sounds like a weakness but is actually something that's not. Such as "I have a hard time stopping working"; or "rather than delegate, I do a lot of the work myself."
There were three answers to the question:
1) Identify an actual mistake, which doesn't fly.
2) Claim no mistakes, which apparently didn't fly
3) Come up with a "mistake" that's not really one, which either they couldn't do or Bush or his staff rejected.
