Powell's pivot toward a GOP bid gains cautious momentum
Colin Powell's rhetoric shifts toward Republicans as aides seek advice from GOP figures, with Powell saying he will decide on a 1996 presidential run in November. He stresses not tailoring his message but sharpening his views on abortion and the House agenda, while acknowledging the party's broader appeal beyond the right wing. Powell faces mixed reactions from conservatives and donors amid questions of sincerity versus strategy.
