Obama Had Better Land Powell Now
All this hype surrounding the possibility of Colin Powell endorsing Obama at the Democrat convention has got to have Obama between a rock and a hard place. Whether or not he was even seeking Powell’s endorsement before (and he probably was), now he sort of has to land it.
Obama has been hyping those “Republicans (who aren’t really Republicans) for Obama,” but if Obama can’t even come off as appealing to a dedicated moderate like Powell he’s going to have trouble convincing a lot of Americans that he is, in fact, a political moderate.
