I know. I really have thought about Powell's role in this a lot. He was aware - like none of us could be - of the type of people he was dealing with in the White House.
I've wondered if the desire to run for the office of the Presidency didn't play a part in his decisions. He IS a registered Republican.
How much support could he count on from the GOP if he publically bucked or embarrassed Bush? Even making waves could have been fatal to a career in politics that I feel he still regrets not reaching for.

Just the musings of a housewife - but I think he HAD potential.
I think he will live out his days regretting the decisions he made.
