Get the fuck outta the way Mr Joe Plumber, you're being replaced by Oprah's soft shoulder to cry on, Silicon Sam

Colleagues of a Barack Obama campaign worker from California have identified him as the man whose shoulder Oprah Winfrey cried on during an Election Day rally in Chicago. Co-worker Karen Wark says the man in pictures is Sam Perry, who worked at the Silicon Valley for Obama office. Wark couldn't give other details about Perry or his trip to Chicago.

Perry didn't immediately return an e-mail message from The Associated Press and a Silicon Valley area telephone listing for Sam Perry was being changed Thursday.

Winfrey said Wednesday she didn't know the man she stood next to after news of Obama's win broke. But she thanked the guy she called "Mr. Man" for letting her cry on his shoulder.
