"There are rumors that they (Zinni and some other generals)are urging Powell to run for President in 2008"
I came across a blog and posted it to the Sunday a.m. Talk Show Thread a few weeks back. It's a group that are 'progressive dems' and are trying to show they are 'security-minded' by getting dems who have served in the military or security services in various elected positions (we need to watch and counter these).
They want to draft Zinni for Pres.
Here's a link to their web site: http://blueforceblog.com/
Here's a link to the Dims running for various positions: http://blueforceblog.com/securitydems
Here's a link to the Draft Zinni site (also has a list of Dims who are veterans running for office:

Thanks for the links. They prove that Zinni has political ambitions. I attended a briefing he gave at CENTCOM. He has a collossal ego and views himself as something of a Middle East expert and procounsul. He is neither.
Is Zinni the head of the Coup-Plotters do you think or someone else??
