Re: Colin Powell endorses Obama
 

[quote=BleedBurgundy;492505]Powell seems to be pretty clear on this, not much to say positive for McCain and not a single negative to say about Obama. I'm surprised it took him so long to announce this decision, since I'd wager he's been 98% sure for some time.[/quote]

Interesting. All the negatives he pointed out were in reference to recent events/conduct by the McCain camp. I guess the question is how much time is some time? It is certainly possible he was leaning towards Obama and it is certainly possible McCain pushed him over the ledge and into Obama's waiting arms. I don't know how you can be probabilistically certain one way or another.

p.s. I still don't get undecided voters but if that's how they feel that's how they really feel.
