President Barack Obama will have to win a second term without Oprah Winfrey, a source tells Pop Eater. Obama received a huge boost from Winfrey and her massive audience in 2008 with her public support.

However, Oprah has now downsized to her own network with fewer viewers on cable and a report claims she is worried support for Obama will be bad for her ratings.
She will quit her daytime TV talk show this year.

On daytime broadcast TV, Judge Judy now bests Oprah in the ratings and has the number one daytime TV series.
The final episode of The Oprah Winfrey Show will air on May 25 and that will place more pressure on Oprah's cable channel to hold viewers and spark new interest and the report suggests Obama will alienate too many potential TV viewers.
More details.

"For 2012, much has changed for Oprah. She now has her own cable channel...that has been struggling to find an audience," the source told PopEater.
"She isn't going to do anything to alienate them."
Will supporting Obama hurt Winfrey's new cable offering?
