Vice President Oprah? Obama promises
January 25, 2008
NEW YORK -- Barack Obama is making some campaign promises we can be pretty sure he won't keep.
Appearing Thursday on the ''Late Show With David Letterman,'' the Democratic presidential candidate delivered a tongue-in-cheek list of his top 10 campaign promises, including a pledge to rename the tenth month of the year ''Barack-tober.''
Also on the list is a vow to ''appoint Mitt Romney secretary of lookin' good'' and another to ''put Regis on the nickel.''
And the No. 1 campaign promise?
''Three words: Vice President Oprah.''
Obama, the latest in a string of candidates to show up on Letterman's show, appeared just briefly to deliver the night's list.
