Could McCain be possibly tabbing Powell for his VP pick? And someone on the D side heard about it, and was trying to float rumors that Powell was going to endorse Barry Hussein just to trump, or at least soil the thought of McCain picking Powell?

A McCain/Powell ticket would be hard to beat. Not my cup of tea, but would be a solid ticket nationally.

Considering that Powell has financially supported McCain to the max allowed level, one of my first guesses was that this was floated to get Powell in the headlines before he endorsed McCain.. it would get all the Obama cult excited then bam, Mac.

I would have a lot of problems with that ticket, but I could live with it for four years if it meant keeping Barack out of the Oval Office.

Neither McCain nor Powell would want to run in 2012. Then we could get a solid Conservative voted into office.

I cringe at the idea of McCain/Powell but when I think about other possibilities such as:

McCain/Giuliani

McCain/Crist

McCain/Rice

McCain/Graham

THEN, McCain/Powell doesn't look so bad. Doesn't look that great (from a conservative perspective) but it still beats having Obama-lama-ding-dong and perhaps somebody like Wes Clark in the White House.
