may i also add that some people might question powell's judgement capabilities since he also fell for the "weapons of mass destruction". if you think that bush was not perceptive, maybe colin powell is equally not perceptive.

I am a white man brought up in a racist, ethnocentric family that hated blacks, jews, italians, greeks and anyone that was not just like them.

I will be voting for the best man for the job of President. He happens to be black.

Former Republican Speaker of the House Newt Gingrich told ABC News, "What that just did in one sound bite... is it eliminated the experience argument."


"This Powell endorsement is the nail in the coffin," said one Republican official, speaking anonymously to offer candid thoughts about the party's nominee. "Not just because of him, but the indictment he laid out of the McCain campaign."


YES WE CAN!!

Well, the coffin may have a lot of nails in it, but it won't be nailed shut until people vote. Voters of America, your endorsement matters even more than Colin Powell's. This is not a done deal until every single person gets out there and votes.

Powell is hoping for a job. Why do you think he waited so long?
