Powell isn't as secure as Condi. He is a McCain in many ways and he wants to be liked--he wants the Lefties in the media and Gov't to like him. Powell may be many things but he is no McCain .. not even close
Powell is a military man .. he has seen war up front and if he can avoid it ... he will try
Which they did and Saddam didn't take the offer .. so we removed him
Powell is very much like McCain. Only McCain seems to be less harmful to the President as of late.
