Powell himself has now said he is not going to the Democratic Convention. Powell wimped out to the neocons over Iraq, and had he been possessed of any guts he would have resigned. He also chickened out of running for president. Personaly I think he's gutless, and will either stay neutral or give McCain a lukewarm endorsement.
And what does Bill Kristol know? He should stick to doing stand up and comedic movies.
Just in case your post was not in jest: it's Kristol, not Crystal.
In any case, I'm thinking that Powell could provide subtle support for the Dems. And I now wouldn't be surprised if McCain picks Tom Ridge as his VP. Both candidates need PA's 21 electoral votes. Obama leads there now, but Ridge could help McCain close the gap. Obama's choice: I thought maybe Richardson, but now I'm not so sure.
