But Howard would NOT want to be on Obama's enemies list.

I would love for you to come back in 6 months after the election and re-read the stuff you are writing. It's hysterical the knots you are tying yourself in.

With a perfectly straight face, Conservative John Sununu speaks his mind.

Top Romney aide Sununu suggests Powell endorsed Obama because he’s black

John Sununu, a top adviser to Mitt Romney’s presidential campaign,
suggested Thursday that Colin Powell endorsed President Obama because both men are African-American.

Asked Thursday on CNN about Powell’s endorsement, Sununu said
the endorsement might be for reasons other than policy.
“Frankly, when you take a look at Colin Powell, you have to wonder whether
that’s an endorsement based on issues or whether he’s got a slightly different reason
for preferring President Obama,” Sununu said.
Asked what those might be, Sununu pointed to race.

“Well, I think when you have somebody of your own race that you’re proud
of being president of the United States, I applaud Colin for standing with him,” Sununu said.

Sure, that must be it... race, not issues
... just as if some whites are not against Obama because he is black.
