He should ponder Tommy FRanks before Powell.
BS. Powell would bring NOTHING to the ticket and, in fact, make it highly unlikely McCain could win the general. Waaaay to liberal.
I am not the biggest fan of Powell politically, but he is a hell of a man, and that would be a powerful ticket. We certainly would be in good hands in terms of military management and foreign policy credibility.
Powell would drag the ticket to the left. It’s a no-go.
No.
Powell has given money to McCain ($2,300) and they are agree on most foreign policy issues.
Two former career military guys on the ticket would be fine with me, but politically it’s probably not a good balance. I would be happy just seeing Powell endorse him.
Nope to both. Powell is overrated as a military leader and decision maker.
The media has reported that Powell may be endorsing Obama...???
1)Powell endorsed Obama.
2)Powell said he is ashamed of making the case for the war in Iraq.
3)Powell trashed the USA before an Arab audience and said that the war in Iraq is lost and a disaster.
Powell thus is in opposition to McCain's foreign policy, has a miserable character and would sink McCain's chances. NO Powell turncoat for me.
I just felt my colin tighten up.
Read my post above. Powell has switched sides years ago.
With much glee, if I recall. It was Bill Kristol flapping his gums though, so you have to take it with a grain of salt.

True, and McCain, very unlike Hussein, does not need any more military prowess than he already has...a very long lineage of it. Powell is liberal and that was always one of the problems with him.
SO GOOD HAD TO POST AGAIN! (Powell could be the only man that would make me stay home)
What a load of Bullcr*p. Powell is a traitor and weasel of the highest order.
1)Powell endorsed Obama.
2)Powell said he is ashamed of making the case for the war in Iraq.
3)Powell trashed the USA before an Arab audience and said that the war in Iraq is lost and a disaster.
Powell thus is in opposition to McCain's foreign policy, has a miserable character and would sink McCain's chances. NO Powell turncoat for me.
This is misinformation put out by the MSM/Democrats. Didn’t Powell already say he was voting Obama? This makes zero sense.
Powell is way too liberal and something of a race baiter....not like a Dem but more than I care for.
Powell has not endorsed Obama publicly. Bill Kristol said Powell was going to endorse Obama
Ping.
