I feel though the endorsement, itself, isn't all that big of a deal (but big in my mind).. it's the facts that Powell pointed out about both McCain and Palin that carry a lot of weight and will awaken those who have not yet made up their mind... of which, I find it a bit strange that there are that many folks who have not yet decided who they're going to vote for.

Regarding the poll figures, I've always been saying that though they do seem impressive at times, they really do not mean all that much.. like a EKG... you can keel over walking out of the doctor's office.

I'm glad Powell thinks like I do though...
