Powell's picking sides!

Wow! Obama is on the vibe; he got endorsed by Republican Gen. Colin Powell, former secretary of state for President Bush and who also happens to be McCain's long time good friend. He said he wouldn't campaign for Obama, but he endorsed him, which to me makes little difference. Is this a key endorsement, I'll let you decide but there are a lot of republicans who aren't happy with Powell?


Obama has said that he will take advices from Powell and since Powell was the one of the main people to lead and start the Iraq war, surely Obama will end it responsibly for those still in doubt.

WOW! This presents a huge twist in an already tangled up election. This demonstrates how frustrated representatives of the republican party are with their own administration. There is a definite need for change no matter who is elected into the White House.

I actually gain a lot of respect for Colin Powell for publicly endorsing Obama despite his republican background and actual ties with the Bush administration and McCain personally. He's still probably a little bit jealous that Obama might steal his opportunity to be the first black president though!

Republican's such as Hennity said it was always coming. They somehow suggested that he was bitter. To be honest I don't think it was good for McCain, imagine how many other people Powell will influence.
Go!! Obama Go! Go!
