Oh my: Palin “Going Rogue” on November 17th
Hot Air ^ | SEPTEMBER 27, 2009 | ALLAHPUNDIT

Posted on 09/28/2009 4:19:27 PM PDT by RobinMasters

Via C4P, the draft was finished a few months early so they’re moving up the spring release date. I was going to make a joke about knowing what grassroots conservatives want to find under the tree this year, but come on. Waiting six weeks until Christmas? Some of you guys will be lined up outside the bookstore a week before it drops.

Pity poor Olbermann, forced to talk about Sarahcuda tonight instead of, say, the New York City terror plot. Again.

Harper publisher Jonathan Burnham says the former Alaska governor invested herself deeply and passionately in the project. He says the book contains fascinating detail.

The 400-page book is the first for Palin, who has been an object of fascination since Republican Sen. John McCain chose her as his running mate during his 2008 presidential bid. The book will be called “Going Rogue: An American Life.”

I’m gonna feel like such a dummy for asking this, but what does sales ranking mean? I’m guessing it means that its selling so well before its even released that they will need to make more copies before release, am I right

It's their bestsellers in real-time, I guess. Dan Brown's book is #2, Mitch Albom's book at #1 currently.

They're gonna need more trees...LOL.

Ranking reflects the orders/sales of the book compared to other books.

In the last 90 minutes, it has went from 668 to 6 reflecting lots of pre-orders. Amazing considering it was just announced and not due for almost 2 months!

If Sarah goes 3rd party and takes Rush and Glen Beck with her-—all bets are off.

Sarah, going third party?? Who put that nonsense into your head. Sarah is NOT leaving the Republican party. I wouldn’t mind seeing McCain, Snowe, Collins, and Graham leave the GOP. I’ll even pay for their bus fair

Amazon had better get with the program...she's going to burn thru that 1.5 million print run way before the book is ever released.

I would like to hear her on the likes of Levin, Hewitt, and an extended interview with the most Gentlemanly if their is such a word, Dennis Prager.

She shouldn't go anywhere near Hugh Hewitt. He's a Romney-shill to the hilt. He would be out to do damage to her.

...not to mention the 'carbon footprint' from all those chain saws and wood chippers. This is a win-win of epic proportions!

DO NOT ORDER THE BOOK ON B&N. They are out-and-out leftists.

Find a conservative online bookstore and order through them. Do not support our enemies!

I said if. And it wouldn't be "third party" because she'd take about 75% of the GOP with her. The rest would fold up and we'd be back to 2 parties again.

GOP is a dead end for conservatives. There is longer an effective opposition to the Demrat Commie Party in this country. Denying that obvious reality is like denying that the sun rises every day.

She left her hand-picked successor in office as Governor. The jury is still out as to the permanence of her reform efforts in Alaska. But then, when is reform ever "done" when the forces of corruption are so persistent?

Also, what exactly is your seeming objection to someone helping to organize that opposition--in whatever form and whatever political party it might at last emerge? Nobody else on the national political stage, in my opinion, has the combination of opportunity and ability to do it as Palin does right now.

I don't worship Palin, or any person. I believe in liberty, however. I think she is in a position to advance that cause, and in a better position to do so than pretty much anyone else this side of Rush Limbaugh.

You are of course welcome to disagree and despair, as you seem to be doing.

I do not choose to despair quite yet.

*OP members embraced the socialists*
You are delusional.

Check out your own Libertarian - Third Party who embrace
IslamOfascists by believing they are not a threat and not worth fighting also the 9/11 Truthers.
You must watch videos of the World Trade Center being hit as humor

Whoa Filbert. You have the wrong guy. I like Gov. Palin and I think she has the ability to form a meaningful opposition to the commie demrat party.

I do not believe the RINO-led GOP will be a viable vehicle for this. The RINO-backed demrats have coopted the GOP. Conservatives, even if they are allowed to run on GOP ticket, will never be given a meaningful role. Neither the RINOs or they’re handlers, demrats, will permit it.
