Source: Hillary Clinton Aide Huma Abedin Seeking $2 Million for Post-Campaign Book
Hollywood Reporter ^ | April 13, 2017 | by Tatiana Siegel

The estranged wife of former Congressman Anthony Weiner has been meeting with literary agents about her new project, which could detail her side of the sexting scandal and her role in Clinton's run.

She may have been on the losing side of the most contentious presidential battle in generations, but Huma Abedin is poised to become a winner on the publishing front.

Sources say the longtime adviser to Hillary Clinton and estranged wife of disgraced congressman Anthony Weiner has been meeting with top literary agents during the past few weeks to discuss a book that is envisioned as a reflection on how her personal and professional lives collided during the campaign.

Abedin, 40, may forgo a rep and sell directly to a publisher. She's said to be seeking as much as $2 million for the book, which has received Clinton's blessing.

Abedin's appeal is that she's never given an interview on the incident (though she did appear in the 2016 documentary Weiner, which chronicled a previous sexting scandal). "She's more interesting than her husband. We know who he is. She's the ongoing mystery," says Princeton University presidential historian Julian Zelizer. "But she'll have to put herself out there. That's what the publisher will be looking for."

Ofc a decent publisher would require her to actually tell all, but instead this will be the usual Democrap dishonest propaganda.

How well did OJ’s book do (maybe as a means of comparing for probable success, lol)?

The only interesting Huma offering would video of Hillary going full rage-lunatic in her hotel suite on election night.

Yup. This book will be a vapid love letter to the most "wonderful" woman in the world. Lefty fan-girls will lap it up, but it will not tell the rest of the world a thing of any value.

If she wrote a book that told what really happened, it would be worth more than 2 million. Writing one to cover up what really happened, won’t be worth 2 cents...except to those who want it covered up.

I’m probably way late to the party with this, but I saw it for the first time the other day & almost fell down laughing:

There once was a congressman named Weiner,
who had a perverted demeanor.
He was forced from the Hill, for acting like Bill,
Now Congress is one weiner leaner.
Moral: You tweet your meat, you lose your seat!
