Obama and Oprah-Made for the Media ?

I THINK it is a desparate measure by Barack Obama to get Oprah to campaign for him. He was losing his mojo and did not really become a great hit on issues. He also saw Hillary getting ahead inthe polls with a broad-based support including from many Blacks, thanks to Bill Clinton's goodwill among the Blacks.

So Obama had to get his own Black Celebrity to endorse him. It has great entertainment value for the American Media that Oprah is out there campaigning. But it is only that,mere entertainment and a means to make more money from a gullible public. The Media must be laughing all the way to the Bank. And Oprah is getting her name and image more out there.

Poor Obama is relegated to the background, just mouthing the same old stuff about how Experience is not equal to Better Judgement and all those punchlines about New Vision, etc.

But when it comes to Administration, experience really counts, and there are going to be some bad calls, but experience is all about learning from the mistakes. Obama has not made any mistakes to learn from and the country is not going to risk him to do that now, especially as President.

I believe when it comes to the crunch, Americans will go for a good adminstrative background and will elect Rudy Giuliani, nothwithstanding his personal iamge issues
