Post by: taxed on June 20, 2014, 05:46:11 PM
I'm amazed that Hillary even sold that much.

A couple of notes. First, the scale of the bar graph is 1000s. Second, Hillary's sales totals include a substantial number of e-books, where Palin's may have been mostly actual books. My understanding is that publishers get more $$ from real books than from e-books. Hillary's advance was so ginormous ($14M is what I've heard) that her publisher is unlikely to ever break even (not counting what was lost in the form of other profitable books that didn't get published, i.e. opportunity costs). IOW, that $14M "advance" was largely a campaign contribution laundered through a book contract.

Yet the libs still keep trying to convince us she'll win 2016. :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:
If this is any kind of barometer, Sarah needs to run. :thumbsup:

Hillary sold 10 books for each one of Bill's sexual assault victims...

I've always suspected that liberals can't read, and this confirms it.

I'm sure there's a readymade lib explanation...

Plus one good barometer of Palin's popularity are those cheapie knockoff-books, trying to cash-in...  Stuff like Palin's Top-50 Quotes, Palin On Putin, Palin's Outdoor Tips, Palin On Religion, Palin's 10 Best Speeches, etc.  There's absolute zero buyer-interest in Shillary knockoffs for retailers to bother making-space for.

There is always a readymade lib explanation. The problem is Hilary's supposed popularity has not materialized  in reality.
