...advantages, including better fundraising and an existing organizational structure that could translate into a greater chance of getting elected. But the country needs fresh political solutions and Powell would not be able to provide these if be were to compete with Bob Dole, Phil Gramm and Pat Buchanan for the votes of right wing zealots.
