From William F. Buckley's Son to David Brooks and now Colin Powell, sober Republican are repudiating the current direction of their party.
No they did not use the term Cultural Terrorism but when General Powell says the McCain campaign is "narrowing" its focus and the Obama campaign is broadening theirs, we all know what he is saying. When Powell says he is disappointed in the Robo call and the un-American language of senior members of his party we understand what he is saying.
He says he has watched Obama closely and he passed the final exam (the economy crisis). He points to Obama's "...definitive way of doing business that would serve us well... " and his demonstrated unifying skill set as reasons for his endorsement. On these points I agree. Powell has much work to do to restore himself with the American people in general and the African American community in particular. His decision to endorse Obama is a timely step in the right direction.
Anyone can error and get in with a bad crowd, I will be watching Mr. Powell.
P.S. I recommend that you watch the video in the related article.
