Former Secretary of State Colin Powell says he's still a Republican, but the party needs to change and be more inclusive. [...]Former Vice President Dick Cheney and radio personality Rush Limbaugh have openly mocked Powell's political leanings - questioning whether he still is in the GOP.
Powell says if the GOP doesn't reach out to more people, then the party will rest on a narrow base of supporters. Powell says that by moving to the right, the GOP risks losing right-of-center Republicans to Democratic and independent parties.
Too late, Colin.
On his presidential votes, Powell describes himself as having a long, solid record of voting for Republicans. But he says he did vote for Democrats John Kennedy, Lyndon Johnson and Jimmy Carter.
