Has anyone found Oprah's eyelashes?

Oprah Winfrey "cried her eyelashes off" while Barack Obama gave his speech last week at the Democratic National Convention. No one has come forward claiming they have found them yet. Early on in his 2008 campaign, she pledged her support to him by opening up with him on a road show in Columbia, S.C. and then interviewed Michelle Obama his wife later on. Prior to the current campaign, she had an affinity toward him with an interview back in 2004.

This week, Oprah had the opportunity to interview Governor Sarah Palin as the McCain choice for vice president. This would have been a wonderful opportunity for Oprah to give both sides of politics, to her mostly women viewers but, she said, "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." Well, I believe it's a little too late for that sort of reasoning. Maybe she's disgruntled over not having found her eyelashes yet? Whatever the reason, it is apparent that Miss Winfrey has made her committment to her candidate of choice Barack Obama. If only he had of picked her for VP, this would have all made perfect sense.
