I thought Hillary made the number 7 slot in Indiana, but it was just this:

The Sinister Pig by

by Tony Hillerman (Author)

Not in the top 20 for the paternalistic state of confusion: New York.

Remember that Northern VA is mostly government workers who vote democrat and the stats are probably from that area. The rest of Virginia would prefer she take the living penis and disappear from view forever...

The woman is a clueless, classless (despite my comment!), tacky, mediocre mind with royal aspirations.

She is the American version of Camilla Parker Bowles without the British accent...

Are the stats for states done by what's shipped, and the stats for best-sellers overall done by what's bought but not necessarily shipped? That would explain it, considering it just came out.

Number 1 in Arizona. Oh, wait! Her book isn't "The Sinister Pig", is it?

Here it is - number 17. No, no. Wrong again, her book isn't "The Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants", either.

Actually, she doesn't make the top 20 in Arizona.

It's interesting to note that "Dereliction of Duty" is number 5, the new Left Behind book is number 14, and "The Death of Right and Wrong" is number 19. There are also three or four books about low carb eating in there, but no Shrillery.

It's not even in the top 20 here in NC!

I do see that Dereliction of Duty is #16, though.

Heh heh!

Somewhere on Amazon's geographic stats there must be an amazing anamolie where Hillary's book sales are going thru the roof. Wherever that geographic location is will also be where her book shills are buying up her book in huge numbers.

I decided to buy a copy myself, after reading the enthusiastic reviews of some guy from Kuala Lampur who liked the book so much he bought 150,000 copies for his friends and family.

PJ...go to www.amazon.co.uk. See if you can find anything out.

It's ranked #5 in Britain. I also checked Switzerland and China. No rankings at either. So WHERE are the Hillary book sales coming from that makes it #3 on Amazon yet the HIGHEST I've seen for any specific location in the USA is #13 in Virginia? ALL other USA locations that have been checked so far show NO ranking of this book in the Top 20.

The MYSTERY continues.

Dereliction of Duty is #4 in Tennessee. And G. Gordon Liddy's When I Was a Kid, This Was a Free Country is #6 in Nashville.

Not selling in Jacksonville Florida, but flying off the shelves in "Isle of Lesbos, Greece" ;)

Maybe it's just #1 on the FICTION list.

Not ranked in Vermont, either. At first I thought the book titled "Who Says Elephants Can't Dance?" was about her but it turns out it was about IBM.....

I suspect the state and local ratings are either not updated lately, or include sales over a longer period of time. I cannot find Hillary's book in any of Virginia's local sales but it is #13 in Virginia. Not listed in China or France either, though Michale Moore's book is rated pretty high.

I heard on FOX this morning that Hilliary, or someone connected to her, bought copies for all her fellow senators.

I assume that a large number of people had the book pre-ordered so it would ship as soon as it becomes available. That would bump the book up very high in the listings.

But...but shouldn't the TOP SELLING non-fiction book in history do a bit better than #13 in Virginia for current orders? And where did all those advance orders come from?

I bet every public employees union in New York bought copies for all their members, without their permission, out of union dues.
