very well said especially this
" Having called Obama not ready to lead, McCain chose Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin. His campaign has tried to stage-manage Palin's exposure to the public. But it's clear she is not prepared to step in at a moment's notice and serve as president. McCain put his campaign before his country"

Speaking of endorsements.....

I like what Colin Powell had to say. I think he speaks for a lot of people who love the Republican Party, but just can't vote for THIS Republican at THIS time in history.

Colin Powell would get my vote if he ran for president. I like Obama, but I have nothing less than utmost respect for that man.

WOW i read the cnn article but this interview is just amazing Powell is extremely articulate and very expressive. The Soldier reference was cool too :)
