Oprah WORKED!!
I didn't think she could sway opinion, but she really worked for Obama.

1. So he couldn't have made it on his own?
I know I didn't think so...but I thought his supporters thought better of him.

6. As I said in another thread,
Oprah drew the crowds.

Obama had to clinch the deal.

I really don't think "her opinion" is what mattered, but her fans sure did want to see her, so they filled the stadiums.

A brilliant strategy, I must admit. :)

7. Her opinion may not have helped him, but she DID bring attention to him and his views.
She made him more visible to Middle America.
