The double O's: Obama and Oprah

At the beginning of Obama's emergence in the presidential race, Oprah Winfrey vocalized her support for him. As we have learned with Oprah's endorsements or disapproval of various things throughout her career, Oprah really can make or break a product, book, food, and possibly even the next person in the White House.  

Today Drudge reported that Oprah has offered to help Obama with his half-hour advertisements that will begin on October 29th. According to Drudge, she has even offered her Chicago studio to Obama. It is unsure of the Obama campaigns response to her offers, but regardless Oprah's extremely vocal endorsement of him will be sure to make an impact on voters.
