Wow! Maybe Oprah and Condi have become friends.
Oprah and Condi have become friends.
Condi did a sit down for Oprah's magazine last November. Apparently, the two of them hit it off real well. Last I heard, they have become very good friends.
I see the deft hand of Rice in this affair. Rice has probably had several casual conversations over the last months with Oprah and told her some of what was going on. Oprah might be returning a favor. It would seem to me strange, all of a sudden, for Oprah to do a pro-invasion show given her history of support for Democrats (although its never been all that militant, like Rosie for instance).
This has got to p/o the Left, and the Democrats, big time. The Goron had Oprah in his pocket in 2000. Oprah has apparently come to the same conclusion that I have: Condi is going places, and has probably decided to hitch her wagon to Condi's star.
I strongly suspect, and I do not believe this to have any bollocks quotient at all, that Winfrey would be a member of Rice's campaign team. I know this sounds nuts, but don't be surprised if something like this unfolds over the next several years.
Be Seeing You,

Fascinating post, and I for one am very happy to hear this about Oprah. I admired her early on, then became disillusioned when she seemed to continue to support the 'toons, especially Hitlery. I will be very happy to see the day Condi can whup that 'toon woman.
IIRC, she was teaching at Stanford...getting elected to anything in Kalifornia would be near impossible for her...or it would require her to cave on so many other issues, it would destroy her prospects nationally.
By the way Chris, I enjoy your posts very much. They are always informative.
