A book battle has broken out on Publisher's Row over the ultimate Hillary-attack!
The project being billed as "Hillary in the Raw", like you've never seen her before, is set to drop in September by liberal Ed Klein, former NYT MAGAZINE editor, VANITY FAIR, PARADE contributor and author of multiple works on the Kennedys.
"The revelations in it should sink her candidacy," a source close to Klein warns the DRUDGE REPORT.

Last week, Clinton stalwart Ann Lewis fired off an email to supporters warning of the 'Swift Boat' tactics coming against the former first lady turned senator.
Now the coming sales pitch for ' THE TRUTH ABOUT HILLARY What She Knew, When She Knew It, and How Far Shell Go to Become President' reads: 'Just as the swift boat veterans convinced millions of voters that John Kerry lacked the character to be president, Kleins book will influence everyone who is sizing up the character of Hillary Clinton...
'Despite more than a dozen years in the national spotlight and more than a dozen unauthorized books about her, she has managed to keep many secrets from the public -- especially about her turbulent marriage and its impact on her career. There have been plenty of rumors about what Hillary and Bill Clinton did behind closed doors, but never a definitive book that exposes the truth. Bestselling author Edward Klein draws on rare access to inside sources to reveal what Hillary knew and when she knew it during her years as first lady. Kleins book, embargoed until publication, will break news about the choices and calculations she has made over the years.'

A fight has developed over the book inside the giant publishing house PENGUIN, sources tell DRUDGE.
A publishing source attending the PENGUIN sales conference last week in Connecticut describes high emotions surrounding the coming publication of 'THE TRUTH ABOUT HILLARY.'
There has been a bitter and hostile reaction to the book among top PENGUIN editors -- editors who last year published John Kerry's official campaign book.
One top Hillary source claims the book is nothing more than "sex and trash" from a desperate author.

Nothing in some book could make any difference to Hillary supporters. She could be an Al-Quaida member and they'd still worship her.
Doubtful there is anything new to learn about this heinous wretch who would sell out her country in a heartbeat.
"Klein glorified the perversion of the Clintopig candidacy in Primary Colors: the very disturbing story that as the perversion of the pervert became more apparent, so did his popularity and his power. "
That was JOE KLEIN who wrote PRIMARY COLORS. This is ED KLEIN.
BING-GO.
You have a point, but that fits with such announcements as McCain's VD. (I count him out because of his melanoma. I also think Lady Macbeth's health will increasingly be a factor.)
Enough material about Hillary will stick and not be forgotten. I saw the teaser on Drudge, went back a little later for the facts, then to FR for lively comments and pictures. In a very short time FR had 113 comments. I mention that to prove that the anti-Hillary vote will continue to be very active. Add conservative blogs to the mix and it is all over.
I knew the Clintons were bad news before he was ever elected. That was based on intuition. Too much was already coming out about him even though he had a lot of power in the state. When that much corruption oozes out of a small state, in spite of spin, there must be a lot more around. I told a friend, "There will be bookstores devoted to Clinton corruption by the time he is done." I was right about that one, too.
It is so funny that you made the comment about the dems sticking together and the pubbies breaking ranks---
One of the funniest moments today on Fox Morning Show with Chris Wallace, was when he was interviewing John Cornyn and Chucky Schumer---Wallace asked Schumer why it would be such a "bad thing" for all of Bush's nominees to actually get a vote from all of the Senators---
Schumer said something like--It would be fine except that the Republican ALWAYS stick together and vote in lock step!
What a crock of crap--has this guy never seen the votes of Lincoln Chafee, McCain, Snowe, Collins, Hagl, even Lugar!!!
THAT is what is so astounding about these dems, they can say stuff like that on national TV and get away with it!!!
THAT is also why you could have a book that has fact so back up that Hillary was into bestiality and it wouldn't matter---nothing said or done is off limits to these guys!
ol' hoghead
Hillary in the RAW???
Dang,what did I do wrong?
One of the best books ever on Hillary that will stand the test of time is HELL to PAY by the late, great BARBARA OLSON "BKO" on FR.
Notice it's going to be released in Sept, just in time for an out from her next Senate run. In case people haven't noticed, libs aren't as happy with her as everyone thought they'd be. Many Hill voters have been on other boards crying after their cold realization that she only wanted the Senate seat for her own ends, and cared nothing about New York. We all told them but they had to find out the hard way. this was before she started her current centrist act, also making them mad.
yeah, what always amazes me is if the dems believe what they say,
and, if they don't,
how they keep a straight face!
FYI.
Yep, that says it all. She's a communist.
I remember when I saw that on TV. I could not believe she would push the Stalin line that hard.
This is going to help Hillary. Every scandal will be thrown at her, and she will be innoculated by 2008.
I don't believe this hype for a minute. No one from Vanity Fair is going to write a hit piece on Hillary. Remember all the hype about Bill's deposition and how he lost his temper? It was all lies, and so is this, lies to sell books that make Hillary look like a victim. Bet on it!
Well, "Swifty Tactics" are EXACTLY what we should be doing leading up to 2008. What are "Swifty Tactics"?
1.) Speaking the Truth
2.) Backing it up with Documentation
3.) Using un-impeachable sources.
4.) Harness the power of the average American who really cares.
5.) Use grass-roots support to make our voices heard over the din of the MSM
6.) Be polite.
7.) Be reasonable
8.) Don't take the bait
9.) Don't get hysterical
10.) Don't get discouraged
We, as Americans, owe the Swift Boat Vets and POW's who spoke out, a debt. In my opinion, they singlehandely kept Kerry out of the White House. Try as they might, the Left could not effectively attack them. People understand the ring of truth. What these men said about Kerry was the truth, and people who took the time to watch and listen understood that.
We need to do the same thing with Clinton. We do not have to make anything up. There is more than enough truth to hang her on her own petard. We should use the Swift Boat Vets example to do this.
STOP IT!
Well this is news to the MSM as well as quinnipiac, zogby and other pollsters who claim her popularity in NY is at an all time high. Heavens, they have us believing even pubbies are going to vote to re-elect her.
