[QUOTE="sortaisle, post: 416302, member: 17605"] Colin Powell is not a staunch conservative. He even alluded to as much when he said that the party has gone to Right for his liking. I do however sort of view this if it's played right as a nail in the coffin for McCains campaign. Although with him behind in the polls, it's exactly where McCain likes to operate. He LOVES being the underdog. I think that Powell has put any public aspirations of him running for any kind of office in the future to rest though. Voting against your party on an elected office is political suicide unless you plan on switching parties like Reagan did. So I think Powell will either disappear from public offices or take an offered position with Obama's cabinet. Don't get me wrong, I still voted for McCain but I say this is a tough one to stomach.
