Signs that Republican Colin Powell will support Barack Obama for president
By THOMAS M. DeFRANK
DAILY NEWS WASHINGTON BUREAU CHIEF
WASHINGTON - After months of playing political Hamlet, Colin Powell is finally ready to tell America who he likes for President - and the smart money says Barack Obama is Powell's choice.
Sources close to the retired four-star general and American icon cautioned that Powell's support for Obama over John McCain might stop short of a formal endorsement when he's interviewed on NBC's "Meet the Press" Sunday.
Given Powell's cautious nature, he might decide to make his endorsement of Obama implied, rather than explicit. Even so, a well-informed source told the Daily News:
"After Sunday people aren't going to have any doubt who he's voting for."

Disagree.
Like him or not, he has foreign policy credentials that people will take notice of.
Well color me surprised!
(Pun Intended)
It's more like this, A black RINO will support a black Socialist dem.
Just like he was SUPPOSED to speak at the DNC convention???
Not a surprise from this leftward RINO POS, who became a General through affirmative action, political correctness, and kissing ass, little more.
This could hurt...but wasnt Powell for the WAR? In fact gave the intelligence for the war!
I dont think Powell will stab John in the back.
It's funny that no one ever said anything like that when he was Chairman of the Joint Chiefs. Only when his politics did not fall in line did that cry arise.
Princess Powell about to bestow her royal favor...such an ego...
I didn’t believe it when Bill Kristol said it months ago. I didn’t believe it earlier today. I don’t believe it now.
I prefer the sequel.....
.Powell’s endorsement will suck all the oxygen out of politics for a couple of days AT LEAST.
McCain needs to create a counter-strategy to draw attention away from Colin’s idiocy.
No way will Colin Powell endorse a Marxist. He’s too worldly to make that mistake.
Powell is not to be trusted! After all, he ‘lied’ to us about the WMD and got us into the Iraq war!
/sarcasm
Never liked him...Always knew what he was about.
We shall soon see. There is NO question that Obama is not qualified to be President of this Country, so if Powell endorses him, we will know it is race!
I’ve always liked Powell.
What fascinates me about this is how not one pathetic moderate Republican has chosen to publicly embrace McCain even though McCain is such a Republican backstabber like them.
What advantage has McCain gained by bashing Republicans? I really fail to see how it has given him any additional leverage in the is election.
Colin Powell has contributed $2,300 to McCain’s campaign. As far as I know, he hasn’t contributed a dime to Obama.
You beat me to the punch. I knew about the $2,3000 contribution to McCain, but not his comment that Obama is not qualified to be POTUS.
