Well, I don't hate Obama, and I won't suck any eggs over this. Powell was never much of a conservative. I'll have to check it out as to his reasons, perhaps some kind of mental illness? Anyway, I still won't vote for Obama!

No, I'm not really referring to you, just a few who really spew hatred and tripe. I'm sure you know who I'm referring to!

I've always admired Colin; so much so that I wrote his name in for president in 1996.


A little thing I remember about him... at a Red Sox game sometime in the late 1990s, he came walking down the aisle just to our right. "That's Colin Powell!" I watched him on the return, he was sitting about ten rows behind me, in regular seats, one of the crowd. Colin could have sat up in virtually any of the private boxes, in the press box, etc... but he was down sitting with us. A little thing that impressed me, he isn't stuck on his self-importance.


As for his endorsement, I imagine some will say its a race thing; I seriously doubt Colin uses that as a criteria for evaluation. My guess is on some insider level - one that has been close to power for a long time - he has good appreciation for which will best govern.

I've admired Colin Powell for years. Ever since I read his autobiography My American Journey
