So, a day later after Colin Powell endorsed Barack Obama, how did the right spin the endorsement? They used the race card and claimed that Powell did it because Obama is black.
Rush Limbaugh, who said, "Secretary Powell says his endorsement is not about race… OK, fine. I am now researching his past endorsements to see if I can find all the inexperienced, very liberal, white candidates he has endorsed. I’ll let you know what I come up with."
Colin Powell must hate America. He has to be a closet liberal or perhaps Muslim. What else can explain why he decided to endorse Barack Obama today?
Colin Powell’s endorsement speaks volumes and shatters any hopes that John McCain has of defeating Barack Obama, fairly.
In February, Powell told Wolf Blitzer that he would “vote for the candidate I think can do the best job for America.”
He cited Obama’s "ability to inspire" and the "inclusive nature of his campaign" as reasons for voting for Obama. Powell also noted that John McCain’s recent campaign tactics and his pick of Governor Sarah Palin impacted his decision.
But, what does this mean?
