Listen to what Powell said about Obama. Excellent stuff, there. Thanks, Powell.

I think Powell's endorsment will carry some weight with a lot of people. He is well regarded by many.

Powell is usually smarter than that. It's just another black person voting for another black person just because he's black.

Why should we believe that you are voting for McCain for any other reason besides his snowy complexion?

The racism from the McCain/Palin crowd is astonishing. You people need help.

Actually, it's BC who needs help. He embarrasses Christians everywhere with his callous comments.

What an idiotic thing to say, BC. General Powell is one of the most esteemed men in the U.S. government and the U.S. military. I saw the interview on "Meet the Press". Did you?

Did you LISTEN to anything he actually had to say? Obviously not.
