That people like Colin Powell have a personal interest in seeing Obama in office, that others have a personal interest in seeing McCain in office and those interests are not liberal, conservative, or whatever - but personal and that is it. Being swayed by another person's personal interest and not evaluating your own interests and doing the research for yourself on voting records, attendance at social affairs, etc... (and I'm not talking about gossip) is just plain ...... (put in your own word here - any pejorative sense will do) I continue to be surprised that commoners still believe what they read/hear in the news as truth.
