"Powell is probably out."

You sure? (I hope he is out given how everything he does scewas up US policy.)

Yeah, Powell has not really denied that he is not coming back so I think he is done. He of course will not say until after the election. Ashcroft will have a hard time getting renominated. Rumsfield might, too, if he is invited back. I do not have a real beef with any of them.
