You are right.  He did say that he thought HRC was a poor Secretary, and I do think he will take a walk vice voting for Hilary.  And he probably did feel obligated to vote for the first black President; but also I'm sure he was still feeling the sting of being isolated out of the inner circle by the NEOCONS. I kinda doubt that he thinks Obama has done a good job.  But he wouldn't say it publicly or in writing, because Obama is still Commander in Chief, and Powell is still at heart a military man. 

But he has an opinion and he expressed his opinion to his friend.  Doesn't really surprise me, because their styles are very different, and it doesn't make him right.  It's just his opinion and it makes you and others happy because it reinforces your view.
