A reader thinks out loud:
Looking at that quote about Gitmo, wouldn’t life be sweet if Powell, the anti-Cheney in every way possible, became the next VP. If we had an Obama-Powell ticket, the election would be over. Certainly would take care of the "experience" question, and would flip world perspective on the U.S. overnight.
Is such a ticket likely? Probably not. Powell remains too much of the good soldier. But I can dream, can’t I?
Stranger things have happened.
