General Powell endorses Obama. He says he thinks both men would make good presidents, but right now Obama is the president we need more. He also expresses concern about the behavior of his party and its candidate, choices that they've made.
Of course, that's all a smoke screen. As we know, Powell is making this endorsement because he's black. Much like Joe Lieberman is only supporting McCain because he's white. In fact, it's why McCain is so far ahead in the polls--only black people are voting for Obama and only white people are supporting McCain. Asians and hispanics are just sitting this one out, waiting for 2012's even more historic presidential race, Sununu v. Richardson, when they'll have somebody to vote for.

Personally, I plan to write in Britney Spears, because Palin wears glasses and Hillary's hair sucks. I mean, really... a presidential candidate with bad hair?
