Hillary Clinton's Memoirs to Hit Stores

[O.C. - Old Cracker]

WASHINGTON - After laying out a seven-figure advance for Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton (news - web sites)'s memoirs, her publishers are counting on seven-figure sales.

The account of her years in the White House will have a first printing of 1 million copies, her lawyer told The Associated Press. The 576-page book, entitled "Living History," is scheduled for release June 9. An audio version, read by Clinton, will be released the same day.

"Only a small handful of books have a 1-million-copy first printing, and I cannot think of another nonfiction book in recent history that has had that large a first printing," Robert Barnett, Clinton's lawyer, said Sunday.

The first lady-turned senator was paid an $8 million advance by Simon & Schuster. Foreign rights have already been sold in 16 countries, from South America to Europe to Asia.

The list price for the book, according to online seller amazon.com, is $28.

The book, which took two years to write, will be billed as a "complete and candid" accounting of her years in the White House, from the health care debate to impeachment to the launching of her own political campaign in 2000.

Only a small handful of books have a 1-million-copy first printing, and I cannot think of another nonfiction book in recent history that has had that large a first printing. Didn't Rush's second book have an initial printing of two million copies?

What about Campaign Finance Reform?

NO ONE will be able to Counter Hillary Rodham's
Presidential Candidacy during the last 60 VITAL days before the 2004 election!

As of a couple of weeks ago according to her publisher, Hillary had not turned in her book on time for a August publication date. Also the publisher had hoped that Hillary would be writing a book filled with a lot of juicy details of life in the White House and of course the trials, tribulations and loves of Bill. Obviously though after the book was turned in none of the things the publisher hoped for was in the book, probably turned out to be a "Whitewash", other wise why a June 9th release date. That does not leave much time to promote the book or have Hillary on any kind of real book tour. According to sources Bill has yet to start on his book, rumor being that he was waiting for Hillary's book to be finished to keep their stories straight. Could be that Hillary's book will be in the bargain basement bin very quickly.

Yup, and they sold out in a few weeks.

Hillary Clinton and memoirs are an oxymoron.

Obviously whomever posted that article on Yahoo
CAN'T RECALL.

[I'm ALL Right!]

The way her memory works, I'm surprised she can "recall" enough to make a book.

[OPS4]

Hillary, should be aware that Lewinsky has her book on the market as recent as last month. Maybe we should match stories.

Ops4 God Bless America!

[Enough_Deceit]

I wonder if "Baghdad Bob" has helped Hitlerly with her book. Take care and God bless.

[F.J. Mitchell]

Whose face did they borrow for that cover photo??-there's not an air brush artist on earth who could make Heelary look like that.

Whatever this broad writes, should be listed under Fictious Fiction.

[F.J. Mitchell]

Now there's the real Heelary we've come to love to hate.

Well, Linn37, it depends on what the word "liar" means!
