Which he should. When Powell started waving the 'let's bomb Iraq' flag, I was convinced that the world had gone mad. Bush, Cheney, Powell among others are the faces of the Iraq War to me. This endorsement, as effective as it might be for Mr. Obama, doesn't change the fact that I think Powell didn't ask enough questions and didn't push back hard enough during the ramp up to the war. Even if he did feel that he was on the outside, that should have made him question what was going on even more.
