Although she made her affinity for Barack Obama clear during the presidential election, Oprah Winfrey has always assured fas she'd be willing to speak with Republican V.P candidate Sarah Palin. But it seems now that the Alaska Governor isn't willing to chat with the daytime diva!
“I said I would be happy to talk to Sarah Palin when the election was over," Oprah tells Extra. "I went and tried to talk to Sarah Palin and instead she talked to Greta Van Susteren. She talked to Matt Lauer. She talked to Larry King. But she didn’t talk to me. But maybe she’ll talk to me now that she has a multi-million dollar book deal.”
