Hillary wipes out more a quarter's worth of Simon and Schuster's earnings and is on the way to be the cause of one of the biggest financial flops in publishing history. This is just too funny.

She oughta get Bill Ayers to write the book. I heard he does a pretty good job writing for other people.

A person couldn’t make this stuff up!

From the article & the part that really made me laugh:

“She doesn’t have any idea who would publish such a book,” this source added. “Maybe not Simon & Schuster. And she knows that since she’ll never make up her [$14 million] advance on Hard Choices, she’ll have to settle for a lot less money the next time around.
****************
“MAYBE not Simon & Schuster?? MAYBE NOT???? *laughing*

A book of blank white paper would sell better. At least that’s useful.

Isn’t there something in the Geneva Conventions about multiple Clinton books in the same calendar year?

As bad as people not buying the book, those who do only read to (on average) page 33. I read that last week and unfortunately can’t remember the source.

Is that “write” a book or commission one?

What these people apparently don’t understand is that it’s been 22 years since Hillary Clinton showed up on the national stage, and very few people even give a sh!t what that tired-looking, worn-out hag has to say about anything anymore.

It will be as Jim Wright’s book hundreds of blank pages.

"He wants her to come off as a mother and soon-to-be grandmother, someone who has gained wisdom and has learned from her mistakes. The book has to tell the truth about their marriage, her health, his health, and her true relationship with Barack Obama while she was secretary of state."

It looks like Bill is encouraging her to try her hand at fiction this time around...

Hillary should write a book about Bill’s sex life called “Bent Choices”.

Who cares if the book sold or not? Most likely she’s at the top of the list for the Nobel Prize for literature.

Hillary!’s payments from Simon and Schuster are a legal way of paying baksheesh.
Then the money is donated to the Clinton Foundation,another tax scam.

Nonprofit category: Public Health Programs

Tax deductibility code: 501(c)(3)

I thought publisher’s paid the advance contingent on sales and could demand the money be returned if there weren’t sales to cover it.

Hillary probably did not write one word of that book. Ghost writers are hired all the time in the publishing biz. The outline and structure of the book would have involved her, she’d have okayed the finished product. Added a flourish or two.

Having a second Hillary book is REALLY risky. It hands the opposition a pile of extraordinary ammunition on a solid gold platter. “This is the woman who couldn’t even get her own biography right…how could she possibly run a country?” She’ll be a laughing stock, a “person who is disregarded as very foolish.” Stupid too.

I don’t think people are really very interested in Hillary, or what she has to say. I also think that because of that, her chances of winning a presidency aren’t very good.

If people were hungry for Hillary, her book would have leapt off the shelves.

She needs to have a more imaginative title if she wants to have a best seller. The title I’d suggest is:

Chelsea Is NOT Bill’s - A Story of Lifetime’s Desperation, Intrigue & Deception

Hillary no doubt has plenty of interesting revelations about Obama from the Clinton’s oppo research back in 2008 and Obama’s subsequent conduct in office. It could very well be a blockbuster success. She’d have to give any hope of the presidency and maybe go into hiding however.
