[0:00] coming.

[0:02] >> The general may be about to say that

[0:04] he's running. The pressure on him to

[0:06] choose another line of work is

[0:08] increasing, too. Reporting from

[0:10] Washington tonight, ABC's Jim Wooten.

[0:14] >> Not everybody's on the Powell bandwagon.

[0:16] In Washington today, these prominent

[0:18] anti-abortion social and religious

[0:20] conservatives voiced their fierce

[0:22] antagonism to his potential candidacy. A

[0:25] potential disaster, they said. Colin Pal

[1:10] that name.

[1:11] >> Now, Colin Powell is a good man. Mr.

[1:13] Coen Powell. Colin Powell said this is a

[1:15] racist country. Do

[1:16] >> you think Coen Powell will run for the

[1:18] presidency?

[1:18] >> Coen Pow is going to get in.

[1:19] >> I have no idea whether the general will

[1:21] run. I hope you will forgive me

[1:24] if I do not talk about Colon Pal.
