Colin Powell endorses Obama

CNN is reporting that "Former Secretary of State Colin Powell announced Sunday that he will be voting for Sen. Barack Obama, citing the Democrat's 'ability to inspire' and the 'inclusive nature of his campaign.'

"I think he is a transformational figure, he is a new generation coming
onto the world stage, onto the American stage, and for that reason I'll be
voting for Sen. Barack Obama," Powell said on NBC's Meet the Press.

"Powell said he was concerned about what he characterized as a recent
negative turn of Republican candidate Sen. John McCain's campaign, such as the
campaign's attempts to tie Obama to former 1960s radical Bill Ayers.

"'I think that's inappropriate. I understand what politics is about -- I
know how you can go after one another, and that's good. But I think this goes
too far, and I think it has made the McCain campaign look a little narrow. It's
not what the American people are looking for,' he said."

"I am Beyond Honored"...

Obama's reply to Powell's Endorsement...
"Earlier I mentioned General Powell and how grateful I am for his support. But I am even more grateful for what he said about the nature of this campaign. Because Colin Powell reminded us of what’s at stake in this election – for America and for the world. He reminded us that at a defining moment like this, we don’t have the luxury of relying on the same political games and the same political tactics that are used every election to divide us from one another and make us afraid of one another."

CONTROVERSY, SLANDER & LIES...

The Obama Watch has sought to focus on the issues that really effect our lives rather than false reports that misguide public attention to partisan battles and controversial comments.

However, to offer a comprehensive and honest view of what's happening in this 2008 Presidential Campaign we do offer the following overview of hot topics:

1) Bill Ayers - Obama has been accused of "palling around with terrorist" for a reality check on Palin's "racially tinged" comments (Click Here).

2) McCain's transition chief pick Timmons and their links to War profiteering and the regime of Saddam Hussein... (Click Here).

3) PBS Poll - "Is Palin Qualified" - This was NOT a scientific poll, it was an unhelpful test of partisan manipulation and mobilization that allowed people to vote more than once, a pitch really for internet hits.

4) Video of Palin's daughter's baby's "Black" Daddy captured our attention, again an issue that is more hype than anything relevant to the presidency (Click Here) to hear the voice of the youthful alleged father set the record straight.
