“RINO alert.”

Powell is no RINO. He is a Democrat through and through. It was the Republicans who gave him a chance and he spit in their eye.

i suppose his absence at the Repub convention spoke volumes. i find it puzzling that he is not leaving
the Repub party where he will be persona non grata
now.

Yes, Powell is the perfect example of what is wrong about
“reaching across the aisle”.
I have to say, I never liked him.
But “support” from people like him is apparently essential
in giving Obama cred he would never have on his own.
It would be nice if SOME candidate (McCain is no better than anyone else in this regard) would understand that to most voters the endorsement hunt is meaningless,and becomes nothing but a bolster to self-importance to the endorser and endorsee, and a way to get back ‘in the picture’, if not the White House.
People would dearly love to hear, just once, that they’re what matters.

Hitler was a transformational figure too, wasn’t he? And Stalin...hell, he transformed Russia into a nation which murdered millions of its own citizens. Of course, with the Obamessiahs resume, it’s a little difficult to come up with good things of actual substance. But transformational??!!

Exactly.

Remember when Powell was wringing his hands, decrying how hard it was to decide which party he should affiliate with.
