That’s exactly what I was thinking. Colin Powell endorsing McCain would go over great with the squishy middle voters who get to decide this election. And someone else has already pointed out that (1) Powell has already given $2,300 to McCain, nothing to Obama and (2) Powell has said before that Obama is not qualified to be President.
I wonder if there’s any basis to the Powell rumors other than the assumption that he will endorse the black guy?
Since Powell has already donated to McCain, he’ll have to come up with some justification for the switch - I imagine he’d blame all the “dirty campaigning” or some such nonsense.
this is what he said about Obama in regards to experience
