The Oprah factor worked for Obama, at least in the Iowa Democratic Party caucus, edging out Hillary. On the other hand, former New York Mayor Rudy Guiliani hardly made a dent in the Republican side. Guiliani's a Roman Catholic who supports abortion. That alone is enough for him to lose conservative support from Evangelicals who comprise a pillar of support for the Republican party. His abortion views may cost him crucial Catholic votes as well (Catholics comprise the biggest denomination in the U.S.) which normally trends towards the Democrats anyway (JFK was a Democrat).
Hmmm why am I writing about this, I'm not even an American :)
