so those 'swarms' that waited for 18 hours to get a signed book were probably most interested in getting the copy up for sale on ebay ASAP...nothing wrong with that!.. They might EVEN be Republicans!

Well one thing is clear whether they want to admit it or not, those people who waited in line to get Bill Clinton to sign a book so that they could resell it for big money are capitalists

You should check out ebay. There are about 20 listings of autographed books. Most do not have a bid on them. Many of those without bids have minimum starting bid $250. So the figure the article comes up with is the minimum the seller is willing to accept. Of the ones which have bids the current high bid is in the $150 dollar range. Some sellers are willing to sell it for $150. There are some with bids in the $200 dollar range but the include the ticket for the event and some even included a foto of Clinton signing the book or some were pre-sale editions (I am not sure what that means). In summary once again the "mainstream" press does not do its homework and makes Clinton more popular than he is.

Yes, but what would a book autographed this week by Reagan go for?

On ebay there is a signed Ronald Reagan book "Speaking My Mind" going for $355. A book signed by Ron and Nancy is going for $499. These are actual bids not the sellers minimum price.

Do the autographed ones have pages that stick together?

ha ha! That`s a good one. Their whole head is a continental drift. I just don`t understand what they see in this guy, to wait on line that long. Is it the sex thing? I wonder how many of those idiots waiting on line in NYC realize that the man they are waiting to see put their lives in danger by pardoning the FALN terrorists so his wife could buy votes. I mean, what was it, only 130 times this FALN bombed NYC in the late `70`s and `80`s? Hey, but let`s let `em go so Hellary can play Senator, who cares if anyone gets blown up. That`s like a guy burning my house down and I decide to fawn over the guy who keeps him out of jail. Amazing how delusional people can get.
