Edwards on OPRAH!
If we put Edwards on Oprah, maybe put him in a black turtleneck, conservative, but semi-hip, this election is over.

We should have a 20-point gender gap w/ Kerry and Edwards. Edwards on Oprah moves all the battleground states to our column. Do it already. The guy is just a rock-star, why not use him?

1. I don't think she's going to touch the election.

13. I don't see why not. She certainly pimped for Arnold when he ran in 2003.

14. I agree...
but that was a personnal favor.
I doubt she would have on any candidate if not all of them.

Could you imagine Cheney on Oprah?
I don't think so.

21. I stopped watching her after she had Arnold on
She doesn't have to live with the mess he is making like I do!

Dems are girly-men
Borrowed 15 Billion dollars to balance budget
he has released murders from prison

2. "black turtleneck"
Good idea, bad wardrobe suggestion. Want him to shave his head and grow a goatee too?

5. I dunno
I'd worry that it would backfire, especially if Oprah didn't have Bush or Cheney on as well. If Oprah invites Kerry or Edwards, I think they should go, but I think she should make the offer to Bush/Cheney too. Of course, they would probably turn it down, which is fine. I agree though. It would be a good opportunity to reach out to female voters, and more importantly, to spent time talking about the ISSUES instead of military records, etc.

6. Why do you THINK you haven't seen Edwards on TV?
Edited on Fri Sep-17-04 11:48 AM by rocknation
You think that Rove HASN'T figured that out, and instructed the news programs to act accordingly? If the event of a vice presidential debate, don't be surprised if Cheney gets sick at the last minute!

10. Sorry folks, Oprah is a Republicans...she won't do it.
And she plays it safe from politics. This woman isn't where she is today because she is stupid.

12. John Kerry will be on Regis & Kelly next week
unfortunately so will Pickles and they are trying to get the clown-n-chief.

But glad Kerry will be first (I think on Tuesday). Maybe Theresa will do a show later on!

18. Maybe Stedman will help --
he's from NC.
It would be a homerun if Edwards was on there. Exactly what we need.

20. Are there any Edwards primary stalwarts still around?
Edwards on Oprah was a huge project on the Edwards blog back in February...

...sadly, our daily deluge of e-mail's was to no avail...
