oh yea colin powell on the same ticket as McCain yea would be cool to see but its not going to happen. just take a look at why powell left the bush administration and look at a couple position that McCain is really relying on to get elected in office and it will become very clear on why it will not happen.

McCain's running mate will more than likely be a very conservative but prominent governor of some state.
Exactly, I imagine getting 75% of the vote in Idaho didnt have much to do with race.. Or winning Iowa, or Connecticut.. Utah..Minnesota, Colorado, Washington State, Nebraska, North Dakota... you see where I'm going here. He won by HUGE margins in states with extremely small populations of blacks but race has everything to do with him being in the lead...
