NEW YORK – "Going Rogue" has sold a million copies.

HarperCollins spokeswoman Tina Andreadis said Tuesday that just two weeks after publication, Sarah Palin's memoir has sold 1 million copies. The print run for "Going Rogue" has been increased again, to 2.8 million copies. The original printing was 1.5 million, then moved up to 2.5 million.

But her’s doesn’t need them :)

Excellent news.

The author of this arrant nonsense, Sarah Palin's memoir: Why the math might not add up for HarperCollins, one Ms. Sarah Weinman, should be stocking up on her favorite condiment to accompany crow. Ms. Weinman's dire predictions were completely and absolutely absurd, and Governor Palin's memoir has proven to be a smashing commercial success.

I’d take the money and run myself, Alaska is a good place to raise kids.. way out in the boonies with the moose and mosquitoes the size of jeeps..

Are you sure those aren't tsetse flies up there?

From the IN-LAWS (1979)

Vince Ricardo: I was in the jungle - the bush we called it - for approximately nine months...
Sheldon: Nine months! That must have really been something!
Vince Ricardo: It was. I saw things... They have tsetse flies down there the size of eagles. Really. In the evening, I would stand in front of my hut and watch in horror...
...as these giant flies would pick children off the ground and carry them away.
...chasing these flies down the road, waving brooms. You can imagine the pathetic quality of this. Waving these crudely fashioned brooms at these enormous flies... ...as they carried their children off to almost certain death. Oh, my, that is just the most horrible thing.

Sheldon: You're sure these are flies you're talking about?

Vince Ricardo:Small brown babies clutched in their beaks.

Sheldon: Beaks? Flies with beaks?

Sarah has created more new Books than Obama claims to have created more new Jobs. She should compile and put out and estimate of how many jobs Going Rogue has created or saved! It's higher than Obama's sub-Ø real numbers too!

LOL.... This part of her article really cracked me up.

For Going Rogue to go big, she must attract her contingent through bulk sales to the Christian right -- an audience long ignored by The New York Times Bestseller List, and by publishing in general, until Tim LaHaye and Jerry Jenkins's Left Behind series about the Rapture proved too big a cash cow to ignore. But a year after her failed candidacy as Vice President, Palin is no longer the great hope of her party. Her image is tarnished by gossip media's fascination with her and her family -- especially Levi Johnston, the teenage father of her infant grandson, who has proved indiscreet with reporters eager for sordid details.

They can say whatever they want about her, she is laughing all the way to the bank, and the White House

I think you've found a tagline. That statement says it all!

Thank you :-)

What a BEAUTIFUL graphic! Thank you!

[ntnychik]

Outstanding graphic! Sarah gave due credit to Ronald Reagan in her book. I felt like she was taking up his cause, and your graphic portrays that perfectly.
