I would SOOOO pound katniss everdeen. Stop teasing me.



Ah, now the truth comes out. Hillary just isn't a "hard" choice you'd make. ;)

Not like you have a shot with either one. ;)

She's in as a GOP candidate then! Maybe only VP at first.



It seems too many people like McCain... can only think with their little heads... man .. that worked out so well for him and the party.:S:S

***Also, according to your metric, Katniss Everdeen probably has a shot.



I'd vote for her! Better than any other option we've had in the last 30 years...

ONLY if she was allowed to put an arrow in any stooge that shouted.. YOU LIE at the president.

Those numbers (Palin) aren't meaningful because according to Harry Reid the Koch brothers bought all the books.



What we really need to do is quiz the buyers to see how many[S] copies of each book were[/S] can actually read.

:P

FIFY
Please don't dent the planet.

I wonder what a readability analysis (like the Flesch-Kincaid one in MS Word) would show for each? Somehow I'll bet Clinton's book is written to a higher grade level than Palin's :)

There is nothing more dangerous than breaking a basic safety rule and getting away with it. It removes fear of the consequences and builds false confidence. (tbrown)

I happen to loathe Hillary, but sales of the book do not mean much.

How often do you see Scientific American or US News and World Report by the checkout counter of your local supermarket?

The higher the IQ of the target audience, the smaller are your sales. Appeal to the lowest common denominator and you can't print enough copies.

He DID lie, though.

I'm sure she had more money to pay for better editing.

To be fair, neither woman wrote either book. They held extensive interview with ghost writers who then wrote them. Then, presumably, the subject reviewed the books for inaccuracies and signed off on them.

This is how it's done most of the time. It's not unique.

That might be her problem...writing a book using big words. In the end her book was nothing more than

Bescumber, or simply Bemute.:P

Hillary Clinton has been a Coccydynia for most American's for some time now.:D
