Rep. Ron Paul, the former Republican presidential candidate who excited a multitude of young voters during the primaries, announced a “major” news conference in Washington Wednesday.

With a range of third-party candidates at his side – including the Libertarian Party’s Bob Barr, independent candidate Ralph Nader, the Constitution Party’s Chuck Baldwin and the Green Party’s Cynthia McKinney – it’s unlikely that Paul will pick just one to support. But his spokesman said to expect “something of an endorsement,” with “a real effect on this fall’s election.”

He will say vote 3rd party but not say which one.

I don't think that would rise to the "special announcement" level. More likely is the announcement of a third party debate. That would be major, and unprecedented.

He'll reveal that Oprah has silently switched her support.

I'm pretty sure.

Barr has said that he won't debate other third party/independent candidates. I suppose he could've changed his mind but that's one of the reasons I don't think it will happen.
