This is news? Worst kept secret in America. McCain and Powell were old friends and the fact he didn't endorse McCain at convention showed where he was going.

Powell's Obama Endorsement Sparks Reaction: "Nail In The Coffin" For McCain


Not a nail in the coffin, sorry
it will not be over until all the votes are counted, and then gone over to see how much voter fraud was done thanks to Obama's TEAM ACORN.

"This is an obviously faulty assumption. Do fake registrations equal fake ballots? No. They waste election officials' time ... we don’t elect people through registration. Confusion, on the part of election officials, while unfortunate, still has more to do with our convoluted laws than with any effort to deceive or manipulate by ACORN."

Republicans sure aren't very graceful when they're losing are they?

i know that people keep hoping something will clinch the deal for obama, but americans do not want more government spending and more taxes. powell is an african-american who endorsed an african-american candidate. it is just one person's opinion and one person's vote. you have got to get over the fact that you think some votes count more than others in this country!

I thought it was clear.

A great number of African-Americans vote for black candidates because they are black. The PC crowd will call me a racist for saying that, but that doesn't change the facts. I didn't say anything about how whites vote.
