Default Colin Powell endorses Obama

I just saw Meet the Press and Colin Powell endorsed Obama this morning. I though that Powell gave a great, articulate explanation of why he made his choice. Below is a link to CNN's story.

That's good to hear. I thought he was going to but wasn't 100%. Maybe Obama would put him in his Cabinet?
