6. Maybe I'm naive, but I don't see the big downside to a Powell endorsement

2. I think it would
be a bad endorsement
There are ways McSlimebag could flip that endorsement around and use it to his advantage.
Further more his testimony leading into the Iraq invasion is something that is unforgeable if you ask me.
But who knows, maybe it would invite some soft republicans to vote for Obama,
Anything these days is possible.
