Wow, 7 million for about 8-10 run on sentences? Amazing. When that comes out I will take the book price and donate it to HRC and Planned Parenthood.

And the morons will probably shell out $35 for a waste of many trees.
Todd will get to retire and never have to lift another finger, and Sarah will go on her way to making even more millions for thinking about absolutely nothing but enriching them.
Can you say GRIFTERS?

Glad she has so much time with a 17 year old pregnant daughter and a special needs baby and running the state of Alaska and 2 other kids under the age of 17 and not living at the State Capitol.

My guess is either Bill Kristol or Trig. The hard part would be figuring out which one she actually went with once you read it.

Who is going to buy this book? Her core supporters don't or can't read. Good thing she will have a ghost writer, because if her writin is like her talkin, the book will be one long run-on sentence without g's.

Few will actually buy the book, but it will nevertheless be a best seller. The rightwing moneybags (see, e.g. Richard Mellon Scaif) buy up tens of thousands of copies, which are stored in warehouses and eventually, hopefully, recycled. Meanwhile, some wingnut--Coulter, Dworkin or Palin--gets to pretend to be a bestselling author.

I wish, by example, there would be no ghostwriter, and also, for her ability, not just of politicians, to write clearly, is, as they say, you betcha, not also very good, but, you know, might also be the entertainment.

Yeah. My brother was at the library several weeks ago, the election was still going on, and some biography about Palin was already pulled from the shelves and sitting in the discount bin. It was published around when she was first announced as the candidate for vice president, and a few weeks later the library pulled it from its shelves and sold it for $.25.

I'm a writer, so I have some knowledge of the publishing industry. I'm also a conspiracy theorist (that is, a novelist). These advances are simply bribes/payoffs. If the publisher is HarperCollins, the payoff is from Murdoch. The size and source of her book deal will reflect how much the company thinks her future goodwill is worth. It matters not a whit to them if anyone ever reads it.

Unbelievable. This sounds like a middle school girls' locker room ... nothing but jealousy. For those of you that are saying "it is all lies ... " what are you talking about? Please inform those of us who obviously don't have your first-hand experience with Ms. Palin. And PLEASE, you don't really want to talk about lies do you? How about OBAMA's infamous birth certificate? Oh, my bad, you just want change ... well, I'm sure once his true birth certificate surfaces, you'll see what kind of "changes" he is capable of. Wow ... sorry I stumbled across this blog ... have a wonderful day!

We're sorry you stumbled across it too! I am not so sure it would be full of lies as much as it would be full of NOTHING, like her. What could possibly be so facinating about A)Her life and B) her huge debacle at attempting to be seriously considered a plausible candidate for VP. Jealous ?Of what? Her stupidity?Her arrogance? Her obvious audacity that she "knew enough"about the world so she didn't "bother " to educate herself or attempt to be educated by others so she could at least look somewhat competent? A Rep. friend of mine told me that they had her being schooled several hours a day, yet by the end of the campaign she didn't seem any coherent than she did from the beginning.! I agree her book will be on the clearance bin sooner than you can say "you betcha".

Good grief, what a M-O-R-O-N. I had to do a double take on Fey's SNL skit because she used Palin's exact words! One part of me wishes this dim wit would build an igloo and stay there forever. Another part of me secretly hopes the GOP is stupid enough to bring her back in 2012 so she can get SPANKED again with a new improved running mate. If she is the best that the GOP can do they might as well team her up with Samuel Wurzelbacher aka Joe Plumber. Regarding her book deal, perhaps she can also land a spot as a talk show host. I wonder what she's going to write about? Maybe she and Greta van Susteren can team up and invent new moose recipes.
page 45: "We were doing a chemistry experiment in class and assigned to be my partner in that experiment was a very cute boy named Todd Palin, which was a person I didn't really know all that much but I and my girlfriends noticed him in the hallway near the lockers. Todd was a boy that made me also think of the great outdoors that we enjoy so much up there in Wasilla, he was having a clean smell to him and all, and then also we knew he liked to do the snow machine fixing and racing. I thought maybe that Todd was an opportunity sent by the Lord to be in my life as a partner . . ."

It would be a waste of paper. What is there to write about? She’s as dumb as a bag of hammers and all she does is shoot animals and lie a lot. Palin's fans don't read books anyway.
Todd will get to retire and never have to lift another finger, and Sarah will go on her way to making even more millions for thinking about absolutely nothing but enriching them.
