Colin Powell’s not someone I particularly admire or respect as a politician, but his endorsement of Obama is both impactful in the message it sends to voters who may be undecided, Powell’s belief in Obama’s ability to act decisively in matters of foreign policy, and the fact that Powell is breaking with his own party by supporting a Democratic nominee.

Here’s an excerpt of the report from CNN on Powell’s endorsement of Obama:

"I think he is a transformational figure, he is a new generation coming onto the world stage, onto the American stage, and for that reason I’ll be voting for Sen. Barack Obama," Powell said on NBC’s "Meet the Press."

Powell said he was concerned about what he characterized as a recent negative turn of Republican candidate Sen. John McCain’s campaign, such as the campaign’s attempts to tie Obama to former 1960s radical Bill Ayers.

"I think that’s inappropriate. I understand what politics is about — I know how you can go after one another, and that’s good. But I think this goes too far, and I think it has made the McCain campaign look a little narrow. It’s not what the American people are looking for," he said.

Not sure why Katy Perry is jumping onto a giant cake, but she definitely had a equilibrium malfunction when she tried to stand back up afterwards.  Pretty funny…
