Colin Powell's latest endorsement as a character witness?

Colin Powell's latest endorsement? Senator Ted Stevens.

Here - "One of the nation's best-known retired Army generals, Colin Powell, described Sen. Ted Stevens in court today as a "trusted individual" and a man with a "sterling" reputation."

Here - "Two senators -- Daniel K. Inouye (D-Hawaii) and Orrin G. Hatch (R-Utah) -- and former secretary of state Colin L. Powell testified to Stevens's reputation for integrity."

Oh, well.

Further: so far as I can tell from their clunky search engine, the only mentions at the New York Times so far is on their election blogs, not news stories.

Further still: I was wrong. Gosh it's clunky! I found one reference to Powell being SCHEDULED to testify - but no report of his praise of Stevens.
