Publishers are rolling out a string of new books about Hillary Clinton as talk heats up that the Senator from New York will run for president in 2008, USA Today reports Tuesday.
Leading the parade of Clinton books will be "The Truth About Hillary: What She Knew, When She Knew It, and How Far Shell Go to Become President by Edward Klein.
The book goes on sale June 21, but an excerpt in Vanity Fair magazines July issue offers a taste of whats expected to be an extremely harsh look at the former first lady.
"Just as the swift boat veterans convinced millions of voters that John Kerry lacked the character to be president, reads promotional material from the books publisher, Sentinel, "Kleins book will influence everyone who is sizing up the character of Hillary Clinton.
Clinton spokesman Philippe Reines said in a statement: "We dont comment on works of fiction, let alone a book full of blatant fabrications written by someone who writes trash for cash.
Sentinel spokesman Will Weisser said the publisher is standing behind Kleins extensive reporting, and declared: "Kleins not a politically motivated attack dog.
In fact, Klein is far from a conservative hatchet man. Hes the former editor in chief of The New York Times Magazine, and author of the best sellers "The Kennedy Curse and "Farewell, Jackie.
The month after the release of Kleins book, last years unflattering "American Evita: Hillary Clintons Path to Power by Christopher Andersen will be reissued as a paperback.
October will bring the publication of "Condi vs. Hillary: The Next Great Presidential Race by former Clinton advisor-turned adversary Dick Morris and Eileen McGann.
The genesis of that book was a NewsMax Magazine cover story in January of this year entitled "Condi vs. Hillary: Dick Morris reveals why 2008 could be the race of the century . . .
Morris publisher ReganBooks says his "Condi vs. Hillary book "traces the trends that could lead to the political race of the century.
Also from ReganBooks: "The Case for Hillary Clinton, a flattering book by Susan Estrich, who ran Michael Dukakis presidential campaign.
The publisher describes it as "an impassioned argument for Hillary as the Democrats leading candidate for president in 2008.
Said Judith Regan, president of ReganBooks: "Hillary is one of those rare people who ignites everyones interest: the good, the bad and the ugly.
Well then! And this is bad (other than our pocketbooks) how?
Thanks for the ping!
But he makes a lot of money being wrong.
Uhhhhhhhhh...........NO one!
thanks for the ping, every time I see pictures of the klintoons I'm reminded how lucky I am to live in Australia.
Susan wants a job in Hill's entourage.
Just another clown in what the media has turned into the 'greatest show on earth' since Barnum and Bailey folded. Bizarreness in politics hates a vacuum and is the new circus in town.
Da barkers are already hawking tickets.
All the picture lacks is a 'red cap' to match her outfit. She is the bagggage woman, isn't she?
'She walks. She talks. She laughs. She wets her pants. Get yours tu..tu..tu..TODAY!'
(WARNING: Check your medicines for contra-indications. This cupee doll not sold in red states.)
Adding the word "fiction" makes this independent clause a--you guessed it--comment!
And that makes the comment self-contradictory (in other words -- A LIE!)
But wait, dear friends, there's more.
...let alone a book full of blatant fabrications written by someone who writes trash for cash
Thus compounding the LIE (and the LIE is about lies, no less!
Ann Coulter said it, that liberals lie just for the sport of it.
The problem is, that their fabrications become more preposterous as time marches on.
It's as if there were an award for the most extravagant and deceitful prevarication.
Luckily for us, most folks resent being lied to.
And, unluckily for the Dems, we Freepers are here to point out their shameless liberties with Mr. Truth.
