Oprah Winfrey faces a boycott from the Florida Federation of Republican Women because of her refusal to interview Sarah Palin on her show. Hey, who has time for politics when you have Dr. Oz repeatedly talking about poop shoots?

Winfrey said in a statement: "When I decided that I was going to take my first public stance in support of a candidate, I made the decision not to use my show as a platform for any of the candidates. I agree that Sarah Palin would be a fantastic interview, and I would love to have her on after the campaign is over."

The FFRW President Linda Ivell responded by saying, "It was just a defining moment for particularly Republican women but, quite honestly, women in general and when we found out Oprah wouldn't interview her. It just seemed so odd."

Did you get your Sarah Palin action figure yet? Will you be voting for Barack? Will you be boycotting Oprah? Why not get your presidential election odds and make some cash while you're at it?
