Title: Oprah (D-IL)
Post by: Chris_ on June 28, 2010, 08:48:12 PM: Quote
Blagojevich Considered Oprah for Senator

For a few fleeting days in 2008, Oprah Winfrey was high on Rod Blagojevich's list of candidates, but he never extended a formal offer.

"She's a kingmaker!" Blagojevich tells chief of staff John Harris in undercover tapes played for the jury Monday. "She made Obama!"

In a mattress of a few days, Blagojevich goes from declaring, "I don't want Jesse Jackson, Jr to be a US Senator," to seriously considering his candidacy.". On the tapes, Blagojevich tells Harris that Jackson has promised thru emissaries to raise money; "One and a half million dollars.".
