And it also seems like a marketing screw up, because the books are competing against each other for a small market of potential buyers.

That was my first impression also. But, whoever said these two could think?

"Another publishing flop for the Demoncrats."

Democrats can't read.

It's to icky for TP.

Tipper and Albert may be joined at the heart but they certainly share one brain.

Maybe Jeff Head could give him some lessons?

Doesn't Viacom own VH-1?

Yes. If you remember there was a real stink when Newt got a deal with News Corp to publish a book and he had to give the proceeds to charity and then when Hillary got this deal from another Media group not a peep was heard.

Incidentally Henry Holt is part of Verlagsgruppe Georg Von Holtzbrinck, GmbH a German Media group which also owns a bunch of co's which publish books for schools and colleges i.e. those poor starving students, when they pay through the nose for their college textbooks, are subsidising Al Gore.

We should all go over to Amazon and post reviews that say we are Florida voters who intended to vote for Gore but got tricked by that nasty butterfly ballot into voting for Buchanan. Then we praise the books up & down and state that we think they deserve 5 stars. Then when we actually rank them, we give them 1 star.

The "reviews" will probably get pulled eventually, but it would be good for a laugh.

It's listed with the book - on the screen with a cover of the book and price etc.

"Since the DU'ers were made to pony up to enter the website, they have no money left over from their welfare checks to buy this claptrap.

Who else is going to read Al's and Tipper's stupidity?"

Even worse, they put out the books too close together. Most of their readers can't afford both (or even one).

Coffee table books = oversized coasters.

[Republican Wildcat]

this is really bad, considering it was featured on 20/20 recently.

Dems will probably force it as "Required" reading in all public schools.

I remember "Earth in the Balance" was required for us to read in college.

Both books have been discounted at Sam's Clubs for at least two weeks.
