And of course we do, but they like to think they know what Obama is going to do.

4. Hell, why not? We can pretend it's true for a few days at least. How would that be different from
the media announcing last night that Pritzker is the new Secretary of Commerce only to find out that she has turned it down? So I say that Oprah IS the new Press Secretary until I hear that she's turned it down.

6. And, Oprah is at least as polarizing on DU as Hillary, so it can be fun!

10. She'd probably do a decent job
But I doubt she'd give up her own multi-billion dollar empire for it.

"I'll call on Helen first -- GIRLFRIEND! I LOVE those new shoes. Are they Prada? Gail and I bought some of those last weekend when we were in New York. Oh? What's that about the Pakistani Ambassador?"

18. Not good if it was true
She'd just buy off the press with give-aways. "You get a new laptop!" Next question.

22. But I hope they will be turning down the sheets in the Lincoln bedroom for La Winfrey
She deserves a few nights there.
