Unless of course, he's running against Kerry or Billary, I wouldn't vote for him now.

Re: Colin Powell out?

Although he is a talented man that has performed many jobs very well, he is fairly liberal in his politics. Therefore I doubt he would get my vote.

Agree 4 years in any of those jobs is a long time. Same turn over in Clinton and Bush Sr if my memory is correct. Although it seems to have been a bit more spread out.
