"Mr. Powell, who served under President George W. Bush, also said, “I don’t want to throw my weight behind someone” at this point in the campaign."

Colon must have got a few too many hits to his head - "throw my weight"? Who the hell are you kidding?

He was a dumbass for endorsing Hussein in 2008.

No General Powell, you OWN Barack Obama. In fact he’s wearing your name around his neck.

At this point, Powell is a friggin nobody. His only trading factor now is that he happens to be black - and Obama has plenty of those endorsements to go round. He lost any credibility he ever had as a Republican the minute he ceded his endorsement to pure racism.

I don’t care what this dishonorable pr#ck thinks.

He knew the truth about the Plame affair and kept his mouth shut, almost allowing Scooter Libby to go to prison.

He has always been a squish.

As a so-called “Republican” he voted for Obama, a no-nothing, and did not even vote for a man who had least served in the military and was in his own party.

FUCP.

If there is a black person on the ballot, it’s not a mystery who he’ll vote for. Last election stamped racist on his forehead. Obama voter, bank on it.

Skin-color trumps all with Colon, he's just acting coy so that when he endorses Ubama he can act like it was an intellectual decision.

If he THREW his weight behind Barry Sotelo Hussein, then there isn’t any WEIGHT left in my opinion for him to throw around.......now. It’s too late. He already THREW it. Like a tossed ball, you only get one chance to throw your weight. Unless he is evolving, not flip flopping...

Powell lost any credibility he had when he showed that he was a racist in 2008 by supporting Obama simply because of the color of his skin.

“I don’t want to throw my weight behind someone”

As an unaccomplished, affirmative-action racist and career bureaucrat who goes in whatever direction the political winds are blowing, what possible “weight” could you have with anyone, Powell?

For that matter, I can think of about 2 or 3 public figures whose “endorsement” I might actually care about. Even then, it would have no influence on my vote.

Not getting the importance of endorsements....

Wait, is he saying that being of the same pigmentation doesn’t make him the most excellent leader of all time???

A turd doesn't weigh that much.

I’m sorry but, I too share the disdain for this Republican turncoat, but this is a big deal, Colin Powell’s refusal to outright endorse Obama at this time.

Rest assured the Obama camp considers this announcement a slap in the face, and it will resonate with others.

Perhaps the underlying plus for our side is that Colin Powell’s reticence may give others “permission” to begin to question their vote for Obama.

Powell showed his true colors last election. Skin color is more important to him that any thing else.

Don’t be so sure that Powell will endorse Obama

Romney may do what he did in 94 in Mass when running against Teddy

If Mitt thinks he can get the support of dissatisfied democrats by going left he will and that may be enough for Powell

Powell playing cute - waiting to see what Obama will promise him in return for an endorsement.

Colin Powell is a pathetic, weakling, has been. How he ever got to be a General is beyond me. Oh wait he’s black.

I’ll bet Mitt is losing a lot of sleep waiting for that endorsement.

What a great example of leadership and "merit" as opposed to affirmative action. Here you have a former Secretary of State, Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, National Security Advisor and 4-Star General in the Army.

This shows that his FBI files must be filled with little tidbits and that in order to "get along" so that his family can feed at the federal trough he needs to make himself this dancing clown and minstrel for the democrat/african american power brokers.

Just look at this. Can you even imagine a SECRETARY OF STATE!! acting like a dancing clown?? A 4-STAR GENERAL!!!! carrying on like a fool. A dancing little fool.

I'd like Colin to support Obama and be done with it. Who cares what this affirmative action, box checking REMF supports or doesn't support? I'm more interested in what Kanye thinks? hahahhaha. Dance fool, dance for your money...... dance like the little man you are. Pathetic.

Wasn’t this scumbag Powell supposed to “fade away” like a real soldier?
