COLLIN POWELL ENDORSES BARAK OBAMA

Former Secretary of State Colin Powell has temporarily brought Attorneymom out of retirement with his endorsement of Senator Barack Obama for President of the United States.

Powell, also a Republican and a retired U.S. general, cites Sen. Obama's "ability to inspire" and the "inclusive nature of his campaign" as reasons for his support.

According to CNN, "Powell [also] questioned Sen. John McCain's judgment in picking Gov. Sarah Palin as his running mate because he doesn't think she is ready to be president. He also said he was disappointed with some of McCain's campaign tactics, such as bringing up Obama's ties to former 1960s radical Bill Ayers." (Source)

I am shocked by Colin Powell's public endorsement of Sen. Obama. I thought Powell would remain silent about his dissatisfaction with the Republican Party. I am sure there are many other high profile Republicans who feel the same way as Colin Powell.

Sidebar: I miss you all. I am now going back into retirement. LOL.
