I recall seeing him interviewed twice before the election and watching in stuned (sp) amazement that Mr Sowell was leaning toward Obama.

I think you have Mr. Sowell confused with someone else. Armstrong Williams perhaps?

“”I don’t necessarily like his policies; I don’t like much that he advocates, but for the first time in my life, history thrusts me to really seriously think about it,” Williams said. “I can honestly say I have no idea who I’m going to pull that lever for in November. And to me, that’s incredible.”

Yes you must be correct, I can see that it was surely Armstron Williams. Thanks for your help, whew.

Thank you , exactly right, Armstrong Williams is the Republican pundit who was unclear just weeks before the election. Whew.

One lesson learned and a half dozen cropped up anew. I was mildly aware of some doubt surrounding my post but went ahead anyways. As you can see from the response to my post, I drew some flak.

On the bright side I’m now more familiar with Mr. Sowell’s works and am wondering about chances for a 2012 candidacy. Given the politicization of race today, wouldn’t a Sowell candidacy be worthy of an in-depth discussion?

Had you remembered the Williams interwiews, or were you thinking the worse, that widdle wabbit had made the time worn mistake of not being able to differentiate one black pundit from another, lol?

Thanks again GLDNGUN, got to go watch the Commander in Chief address the Joint Session Of Congress, God help us.
