A poll from Pulse/Care2:
Oprah Winfrey is on the campaign trail with Barack Obama. Do you think this improves Obama's chances of being elected president?



Fruedian slip in the title?

Then add your comments. I watched her speech and thought she sounded a lot like a preacher (Southern, to be exact).
Oprah helping Obama, what do you think?
You may choose only one

I wish I could have watched. Just from articles in Time magazine, I am all for Obama.

Interesting question Gimster.

I was going to begin a post about this. I'm glad you did.

I find this most interesting. I respect Oprah so the fact that she has never done this in the past makes me think that she loves what she sees in Obama.

I certainly think it will make people look twice. I know it will make me learn a little more about him. I like what Oprah stands for. She's been around a long time and still is held in high regard. This has to make a bit of a difference.

While Oprah has done a lot for women, it's interesting that she is not campaigning for the woman candidate, Hillary.

It'll be interesting to see who the other candidates get to "sponsor" them. Bill is helping Hillary, but that's to be expected. Wonder if she'll get someone else, also. And how about Edwards? Do you think he'll enlist the help of someone?

About Oprah... speeches, like the one she gave, are not her forte. I was shocked.
