Not on-topic, per se, but should Gov. Palin actually put out a book, look already at the posts which claim she would just be *cashing in* and compare that to the same kinds of screeching that went on went Mr. Newt put out "To Renew America." The Dems spent hours on the first day of the 95th Congress to denounce him in one-minutes, the charges of bribery because he received the enormous advance, some of those coming from Members who themselves had had book advances, Bonior, Frank. Funny how when Pelosi got her book deal, there were no cries of bribery, no charges she was just padding her pocket, hmmm ...
The fact that NO Republican stood up and defended him that day still galls me -- he lost out on serious money (at a time when he wasn't really rolling in dough, regardless what people thought) and all because some jealous so-and-so's in the other party couldn't handle it that his ideas motivated many to run and moved a nation to give him that leadership role.
