Colin Powell Endorses Obama

[Luissa]

Powell isn't a republican.

He is what republicans used to be!

 

[elvis]

I guess not anymore!

When there was word spreading that Powell would run for President, they were saying it would have been on the democratic ticket.

So?

So?

So....
he never was a republican.
People assume he is republican because he said there were WMD's.

 

[Luissa]

Huh?

I will try to find Del's quotes in the other thread! Goldwater called the way the Repubs were moving over ten years ago and how he didn't like the way the party was moving.

Really?

Could you provide a link that he switched to the Dem Party, and that he isn't a Republican? Thanks.


Or maybe Newspaperboy could do it?

Why would a republican consider running on the democratic ticket?

Elvis .... the next time you start spouting off ... you better check your facts.

All I am sayin!

Here's one. the first one I found.
Powell to Run for President as a Democrat!

No shock. Powell always leaned left politically. You libs didn't know that???

Oh and all that spent the years calling him ''uncle Tom'' can now come forth with your hypocritical love for him..

Did you even read your own link?

If he can't get him to change parties then he'll run Powell as a Republican since neither party has any heir apparent. Doerr is sick of losing and sees Powell as his ticket to the White House cabinet.

Uh, did you read the article?

So what is this ambitious political maven doing with Powell?

It's obvious to me: he wants to flip Powell into a Democrat and run him for President.

If he can't get him to change parties then he'll run Powell as a Republican since neither party has any heir apparent. Doerr is sick of losing and sees Powell as his ticket to the White House cabinet.

Powell isn't a republican.

Is Newt Gingrich a republican?

Not even worth a comment. Carry on.

Hon, you must be thinking of some of your friends.

I, and nobody I know, has EVER called Colin Powell "Uncle Tom"

But thanks for your 2 cents, very enlightening.

Huh?

"Mark my word, if and when these preachers get control of the [Republican] party, and they're sure trying to do so, it's going to be a terrible damn problem. Frankly, these people frighten me. Politics and governing demand compromise. But these Christians believe they are acting in the name of God, so they can't and won't compromise. I know, I've tried to deal with them." BG 1995

This is what I was refering to, Del orginally posted this in "Your Opposite Favorite" thread

I told you it was the first one I could find.

You sure did Elvis, you sure did!

Is Newt Gingrich a republican?

I think we all know he isn't as far right as Newt.
