As for the Palmeiro thing, Raffy said it was a tainted supplement. Clemens is saying it was just B12; it wasn't tainted and it wasn't steroids.
It's really the same as the Bonds case, since Clemens can now reasonably claim that he can't be 100% sure what exactly McNamee injected him. Where did the steroids come from isn't really a key.

For the Palmeiro case, the excuses used by Clemens and Palmeiro are exactly the same. They both claimed they believe they've been injecting B12. The only difference is Palmeiro was then tested by the league for steroids, and Clemens didn't get tested.
