Unlikeable: the Problem With Hillary
“On a cactus, the pricks are on the outside.
—The late congressman Mo Udall Oprah Winfrey delivered the first blow to Hillary in Iowa.
For as long as anyone could remember, Oprah had been known as the “Queen of All Media.” But to many of her fans, especially those on the Left, Oprah was more than that. In their eyes, she was the “Queen of Everything”—the doyenne of America’s self-absorbed, secular, redistributive, and politically correct culture.
Over the years, Hillary had worked hard to ingrat...iate herself with this powerful cultural figure. She sent Oprah handwritten notes, birthday greetings, and invitations to special Clinton events. Oprah had never endorsed a political candidate, and in the months leading up to the Iowa caucuses of 2008, Hillary expected that Oprah’s support for her would be understated—perhaps a nice spread in O, the Oprah Magazine and a couple of well-timed touchy-feely appearances on Oprah’s TV show.
But in a dramatic break with precedent, Oprah ditched Hillary and endorsed Barack Obama for president.MoreLess
