Would Colin Powell be a perfect VP choice for John McCain?
Michael E asked:
I believe that Charlie Crist, Governor of Florida, would be a good choice because he is a strong conservative and very popular in his state.

However, Colin Powell is a successful General and his experience and credentials are undeniable.

I heard that the leading choice is Kay Bailey Hutchison.

Colin Powell is 70. Old Timer McCain needs someone younger.

The guy who said there were WMD’s? No, respect the guy, but his reputation is shot.

Might be interesting, but I don’t see Powell being willing to run. If he was, he would have run for President and would have won, hands down.
Obama News
Colin Powell would be a great Presidential canidate
Golf Advice
Only if Obama gets the nomination. I doubt he will win.
Anyway, McCain really needs a conservative Christian voice. I would pick Huckabee.
Obama News
Colin Powel can’t run because he is part of the system of almost 1,000 deceptions and lies in the ramp up to the war that Bush and Co presented to the country and world as undeniable fact that we were in immediate danger from a 20th rate power.

True Powell and McCain might be the ultimate ticket especially if running on a national security platform. There would be no way for the dems to come up with some one who would seem more capible then those two. But if the campeign were to focus on a different aspect such as the economy it would be wiser to choose someone else
Charlie Crist
NO! I think the only REAL choice is Mitt Romney. He could help McCain with the Economics and McCain could prepare him for the next election by teaching him foreign policy.
Juts my thoughts!

I like Powell but he is too old.

Didn’t Powell kind of leave the hint he wouldn’t mind being Obama’s VP? No way is Colin climbing back into bed with another republican wanting to stay in Iraq. Give the guy a little more credit then that.
Golf Advice
His credibilty is shot. And he has Bush, and himself, to thank for it.
Obama News
Colin Powell, I think, is far too smart to fall for that again! GWBush used him as a reason to vote Republican and then tried to make a fool out of him! The ONLY person with intelligence and integrity was Colin Powell which is why he was left out of the inner circle that decided to go to war with Iraq! I don’t believe there is a reason on eaarth the Colin Powell would ever run as a Republican!

Powell would be great but he’d never do it.
