Having signed more than 20,000 books, by her own estimate

I was skeptical about that figure before, but now I am REALLY skeptical.

There's a limit of two books per customer for signing

I'll pick these two:

Pings

I've got a client meeting way out in Gwinnett 10-11, but I think I may try to make it. Is this the B&N just north of Galyans, across from Phipps? Sign ideas?

OK Georgia FReepers, IT'S YOUR TURN! She has been FReeped coast to coast and it needs to continue. Buy some poster board, visit a costume store and pick uo a devil mask, send an e-mail to your local right to life organization and turn out to spoil her day.

She is really annoyed by the guy in the devil mask that has been stalking her all over the country. Atlanta should be no exception. The secret service seems to take pleasure in driving her past the guy in the devil mask.

GO GET HER ATLANTA! It only takes a couple of people to ruin her little love fest.
Good luck!

"Having signed more than 20,000 books, by her own estimate" ...

I was skeptical about that figure before, but now I am REALLY skeptical.

20,000 books at 6 seconds per book = 33.33 hours of signing. Nothing but signing -- doesn't include the walk in and wave, any breaks, travel, etc ... over a day and a half of nothing but signatures.

If she had any actual contact with any of the pathetic sheep that worship her, say, "Thanks for coming today", or "good to see you", then she may have condescended as much as 10 seconds per signature ... 20,000 books at 10 seconds per book = 55.55 hours of signing. Two and a half solid days of sitting, frantically signing for her mindless thralls.

I'm skeptical too ...

New York! It's 9:00am... Do you know where you're Senator is?

Yeh, she's out pushing her PROGRESSIVE agenda so she can win the next Presidential Election, get economic growth going again and find jobs for Americans. And reduce the deficit as well as stop terrorism. And repeal the Bush Tax Cut.

I hope to be there if I can talk my mom into coming to help with the kids. I'll have a 2 1/2yr old and a 9mth old in tow though if I can get there. The 2 1/2yr old would be great for a devil costume.. he is a little devil.

Is there someone with a Georgia ping list? Also, it has been helpful with a couple of the FReeps to contact the local right to life chapters for support and back up. It sure upped the numbers in Denver and I believe it was San Diego.

Does anybody actually believe this malarky? The entire Q&A session is total fluff & BS. Sheesh. (Unfortunately, most sheeple probably do.)

"The biggest crowd I have heard of so far was about 300 people. Not much for someone with so much free press coverage. "

Maybe they meant to say 2000 total from all the signings. :)

It starts earlier, if someone could be there before 11 to scout out the situation, that would be good.

Rock star reception. (lmao)

The one we attended it was more like a tea room book club gathering.

The rules at the Portland one was no media or photos during but media was allowed to show her arrival then they were sent out of the store.

Our local station KOIN managed to get a shot of my son and Hillary and showed it on the 11 o'clock news.

Sounds like she is wearing down under the Freeps and other activists gathering.

These numbers are the total more like of 3 to 4 signings in a 24-48 period not one stop. Hillary is not relizing that she is traveling.
