Oprah to Hit Campaign Trail Next Week for Obama

    Oprah is hitting the campaign trail next week for Obama, which could be a huge asset. As we wrote in a previous Tote Board column,  it's not simply that Oprah is a huge pop culture celebrity. It's that her constituency is roughly the same as Hillary's -- lower-to-middle class women -- so she has the potential to help Obama with a key group.
    Having said that, will she energize "her vote" in Iowa -- a caucus state where it's much harder to participate? It's unlikely. New Hampshire and South Carolina, however, could be another story.
