Looking past the current administration Powell cleaned up the record Sunday, stating that there was no evidence for a nuclear weapons program in Iraq. The information given to him previously by the CIA on this matter? Wrong.
"'Basically, Powell now believes that the Iraqis had chemical weapons, and that was it,' said an official close to him. 'And he is out there publicly saying this now because he doesn't want a legacy as the man who made up stories to provide the president with cover to go to war.'"
How about a unity government? Kerry/Powell 2004? Sounds swell, but from Powell's point of view -- why be VP 2004-2012 when you can be President 2008-2016?
