Obama didn't really really take off until Oprah went out there for him. She gave him instant credibility in the eyes of millions.
Lets see what they have in common and why she might support him:
Race - Obvious
Both live in Chicago - Purely a coincidence I'm sure
Personally, I could care less if Palin is invited to the show. I'd hate to see Oprah try to morph into an actual journalist in an attempt to boost her faves chances. Katie Couric almost pulled it off, but I doubt Oprah could.

Oprah is an entertainer, much like Rush Limbaugh, Sean Hannity, and Glenn Beck. The forum may be different but let's face it, Oprah pushes socialism on her viewers.
Oprah is in the tank for Obama for many reasons.
Problem is Oprah's viewership is mostly white women.
Now that they know Oprah isn't what they thought she was I think Oprah is going to have serious problems trying to maintain her credibility.
Oprah's credibility is what made her so popular.
In the minds of at least half of her viewers that credibility is gone.
