Powell And Clinton

Two hot rumors are making the rounds in Washington:
One has Colin Powell endorsing the OH!man or even speaking and endorsing at the Dem Convention.
It's no secret that the former Secretary of State has met with Obama. But he's also met with McCain. Would the former Chair of the Joint Chiefs really turn his back on a military man and endorse a guy who wants to scale back our military presence throughout the world? Nothing would surprise me. Stay tuned.
The second Big Rumor says that a deal has already been cut for Hillary to join the OH!man's ticket. Word is that Hill would accept the Veep spot in exchange for the complete elimination of her campaign debts. Think of the advantages: Obama would nullify Cinton, take her out of the Senate (where she could be a thorn in his side) and eliminate her as an active challenger should he actually be elected. But I'm betting it ain't gonna happen. The Obamas can't bear the thought of having this woman (and her hubby) by their side. My guess is Obama would have to be in Really Big Trouble to make this pact.
