What do you think of this?
Do you think this will make any difference in the outcome?
Myself I think his endorsement will have little impact. Though he spoke eliquantly about why he decided to endorse Obama I think his endorsement will have little to no impact. But given his ties to the GOP I do think it's a significant endorsement.

I think it will have the same effect as Lieberman endorsing McCain.
I liked Powell but it was he who assured us all hat there were WMDs in Iraq. He allowed himself to be Bush's lackey to start the war and then he resigned and dropped out of sight.
His endorsement shows me there truly is little difference in who is pulling the strings.
All that aside...... I think Powell may have been a better candidate than any of the ones currently or in the primaries. But his endorsement means little to me.
