Asked about whether he planned to back Barack Obama again this election cycle, Colin Powell told NBC this morning he was still deciding. “Oh, (Obama) knows better. He knows that I always keep my powder dry, as they say in the military. I feel as a private citizen I will listen to what the president says and what the president has been doing, but I also have to listen to what the other fella says. I’ve known Mitt Romney for many years – good man,” Powell said.
