Will OPRAH have on the two candidates again this year?
has anyone heard anything? i haven't.

i know that her reach and influence is something both candidates should be gunning for.

it'd be great to get them on TOGETHER and let HER ask all the questions.


now, THAT'D be a ratings success.

2. yeh, i'm still really pissed about that
i lost a ton of respect for her when she did that.



with that said though, i still can't see where she'd be pro-bush, even though she has her billions.

7. I LIKE Oprah
and think she has too much love for our country to see it go down the tubes for another 4 years. Also, she travels a lot and I'm sure knows how the rest of the world feels about this bunch of crooks/hatemongers.

4. I don't think she is a bushy and you suspect
I don't watch normally but my wife had it one one afternoon a couple of week back and her audience was full of people who had never voted before. The guest were stars who were pushing voter registration. The comments from the guests and Oprah were in warning to people of the apathy of not voting and how important it is this year. They also were warning the women and blacks about the possibility of loosing a right that was only won for them less than 50 years ago.
She made mention of the Florida fiasco in 2000.
She looked like she was leaning left to me.

5. I never watch Oprah but she had a great show on
Wed before Kerry's "debate"..It was called Oprah's Voting Party..

Drew Barrymore was on..who had just spent a year making a documentary about why it's important to vote..PDiddy who says "Vote Or Die"..Cameron Diaz, Christiana Aguellara..they never mentioned bush by name but you could tell they all wanted him OUT.

I saw where Oprah got calls about her show afterwards from whining koolaid drinkers.

Maybe Ophra has seen the damn light!!

8. Probably not, because she's sick of all the crap she took last time.
"She was too soft on Gore!"

"She kissed Bush !" (He kissed her on the cheek, and actually she ASKED Gore for a hug)

I'm certain she got so much mail over those two appearances that she was like screw that. Just do a voter registration show and be done with it.
