Just thought those Freepers who are keeping track would enjoy this. I kept scrolling and scrolling to find Hillary's book.

[DittoJed2]

Can't wait to see how this stacks up with Nielsen Bookscan's book sales.

[Blueflag]

LEt me offer a field report from San Francisco.

I fly into and out of SFO last week. I purposely visited four bookstores/booksellers. Only one had Hitlery's book out, in a section title "Simply Good Books" There were 12 books there -- four deep in three vertical slots. They looked untouched. In this same store, Treason was in the bestseller's rack near the front of the store. One other store had treason but not prominently. The other two stores had neither book.

[Kieri]

Did you see that Al Freakin's book is #26 in pre-sales? I'd be surprised if it goes higher.

[Quilla]

Did you notice that Al Franken's not-yet-released screed is at 26? There must be a secret fund out there to mass purchase publications of liberal lies. I'll never believe a million actual 'people' bought Hillary's tome. There just isn't that much money left out of a welfare check.

[DittoJed2]

Our local Krogers has a stack of Hillary books, looking untouched, but none of Treason. Makes one wonder when, in a Republican neighborhood, are they going to get the thing in?

[Quilla]

The keepers of the secret fund must have read this thread - Hill's at 51 now.

[Ditter]

Maybe its time for us to buy another copy of Ann's book. Put it away for a birthday gift or for Christmas. Lets push Treason back toward he top of the list.

[DittoJed2]

Either that, or foreigners are buying them. U.K.'s bookscan has that bozo Michael Moore at #4 Living History at #32 and Treason not in the top 50.

[frmrda]

Not as good news as you might think. I recall hearing that your number on that Amazon list is not sales, but rather "hits" on that book. I might be wrong.

[DittoJed2]

Hey, I'd give it. Fantastic book.

From Top Sellers, Books, Non-Fiction:

• *Treason - #2
• Sleeping With The Devil - #3
• Lies and Lying Liars (Al Franken) - #4
• Stupid White Men (Michael Moron)- #14
• *Hillary's Scheme - #17
• *Dereliction of Duty - #18
• Big Lies: The Right Wing Propaganda - #19
• *Off With Their Heads - #20
• *Tales from the Left Coast - #25

So as I see it, there are FIVE (5) Conservative books in the top 25 compared to only four minor 'Rat books and no Hildabeast rag in sight. Don't know where your getting #18 and #54 for Ann and Rodham though. TREASON is #2!

[DittoJed2]

There are two lists:http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/tg/new-for-you/top-sellers/-/books/53/ref=pd_ts_h/102-0437335-2091338

Andhttp://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/tg/new-for-you/top-sellers/-/books/all/ref=ts_bh_1_h/102-0437335-2091338
The actual sales ranking of the book on the book's page is 18. Not sure where the #2 is from. It may be #2 in non-fiction.

[Xthe17th]

OOPS. How could I have missed it, but I did - left out SLANDER which is at #23. So that makes it Six of ours to four of theirs.

[DittoJed2]

Barnes and Noble's list, updated hourly, has Ann at an overall #7, Hillary #46.

[Xthe17th]

Your first URL is the one I quoted - for all non-fiction.
To be fair, Hildabeast is #7 on the biography and memoirs list, BEHIND Benjamin Franklin, George Bush, and Kathyrin Hepburn!

[DittoJed2]

Her "biography" should be in fiction.

[TrappedInLiberalHell]

One old trick Scientologists used was to buy L. Ron Hubbard's books, then re-sell them back to the book store and buy them again, multiple times. This kept his crappy books (some of which may not have actually been written by him) on the bestseller lists. Perhaps something similar is at work here with Hillary's book.

[DittoJed2]

Sounds like her. AOL has Ann's book right on the front page as one of their featured products (linking to Barnes and Noble)

[thulldud]

I'll never believe a million actual 'people' bought Hillary's tome. There just isn't that much money left out of a welfare check.

Look again. Them ain't welfare clients standing in those bookstore lines.

You should have said, "There just isn't that much money left after the country club membership, the two SUV's, the nice house in the 'burbs (with its nice immigrant staff), the private school for the kids, vacation in Paris, etc."

But they manage to squeeze in the occasional book purchase all the same.

[JG52blackman]

It's possible they've been selling out as quickly as they are put on the shelves. I've been checking my local Walmart (Orange, Texas) book section for the past few weeks and there has been an empty space that I suspected was for Treason. Last night was the first time I actually saw Treason in that same space. Of course there is no shortage of Hillary books: it wouldn't surprise me if they weren't moving at all. After all, for those most susceptable to her lies, People Magazine is as deep as their reading gets.
