Good for Palin.  I guess she really needs the money these days.  Being jobless and all.  I do find it sad though that this is what conservatives hang their hat on.  We can sell more books than you mantra is a pretty weak one at best.  If book sales meant literary genius then J K Rowling would be Shakespeare

KC - she had well over 500k in legal bills alone she personally was on the hook for.

I think everyone here has admitted many times over that no Republican was winning this election.

I hope, if you do read it, you have a Kindle.  It's going to be impossible for you to copy and paste from a real book.

Won't be winning the next election in 2012 either.

Reality = Deal with it.

So,when an author writes a book his or her goal isnt to sell books?Thats as dumb as you libs trying to convince us that MSNBCs ratings really dont matter.

Lurkers typical liberal response. When he knows he can't defend the indefencible the typical lib reaction is to insult.

That's not what i said at all Billy.  But for a lot of writers selling a book as a commercial success isn't the driving factor.  Just like movies, some independent movies are fantastic but barely break even meanwhile 'blockbusters' make millions but say little and will be forgotten long before the popcorn has been picked up.

KC - she had a huge legal bill to pay off.

Lurker - can you at least admit you are fascinated by Palin? 

At least I admit to liking her and wishing she were single.   ;D

She is the GOP version of Paris Hilton.  Constant trainwreck in motion.

Who wouldn't be fascinated with that?

Palin wrote a book in the height of her popularity/public interest after a VP campaign.  Obama wrote his memoirs before there was much public interest.  If you think about it...it's quite pompous to write a memoir book for sale before you really did anything.  Anyone else think it's odd Obama published a book in 1995, before he was even elected?  Keep a personal journal.

It isn't an insult when it is true.

Nice try.  Rub those two brain cells together and come back with something better.

With Huckster out and Romney DOA because of his health care fiasco in MA, it might come down to her and pawlenty.

Lurker secretly loves Sarah.  At least some of us are honest about it.  Lurker will vote for her in 2012.  he will donate money to her, and will knock on doors for her. 

What would he do without her?

Anyone else think it's odd that Obama got his memoirs published in 1995...before his career in politics.  Would any of you write a book about your life and sell it?

Well at least shes good looking enough to have sex with.Imagine trying to have sex with that pre-op tranny in the white house with her lazy eye,slump shoulders,iron jaw and bad hair?Christ,she wouldnt get laid in a mens prison ugly skank.

Viagra/Cialas/Extenze would not help out any normal man for the First Chewbacca.
