Manchester2: You conveniently omit the fact that as McCain himself has said, he :voted with Bush 90 percent of the time.” I believe that would qualify him to share the “honor” of a “Bush-McCain administration.”

Maybe they can portray Powell as a communist since he engages in community activism with black kids:-)

Let them eat Yellowcake. Watch as the wingnuts dig into Powell for his UN speech, which they themselves jumped off the bar stools in jubilation for. Just wait.

They have not shared the same views once McCain went for garbage politics. The Republican party has become infested with right-wing nuts and christian conservatives-zelots who are trying to change this country into a fascist state by trampling on the constitution and forcing christianity on government run agencies. Enough is enough, we want our country back. Thanks to Powell, maybe more Republicans will stand up to the Jerry Farwell alumni looney's who have takeover Lincoln's Party.

“Bush-McCain” administration? This little piece conveniently omits the fact that Colin Powell and John McCain shared the same view, i.e. that you must commit adequate forces to a conflict, in order to win. In essence, when Sen. McCain wrote his now famous letter to President Bush, urging a surge of forces, it was an endorsement of a strategy that has much in common with the Powell doctrine, hammered out in the first Gulf War.
