Sarah Palin's forthcoming book already in Amazon Top Ten

Sarah Palin

It isn't due out until November 17, but already, Sarah Palin's forthcoming book, Going Rogue: An American Life , is #5 at Amazon.com (at the time of writing).

Yesterday in the Wall Street Journal, John Fund stated that Sarah Palin -- John McCain's vice-presidential pick in 2008 -- was a "soon-to-be publishing phenomenon."

Fund talked to the book's "told to", former World magazine editor Lynn Vincent:

Ms. Vincent didn't reveal any details about the book, but did acknowledge it will describe Ms. Palin's frustration over her treatment by the staffers she inherited from the McCain campaign after her surprise pick as the GOP vice presidential nominee last year. Ms. Palin was booked on grueling interviews with hostile reporters while talk-show hosts such as Glenn Beck couldn't even get through to her aides.

Mr. Beck tells me he was stunned when he picked up the phone one day just before the election to discover Sarah Palin was on the other end of the line. "She explained that she had been blocked from reaching her audience, so she was now 'going rogue' and booking her own interviews," Mr. Beck told me. "I was thrilled she had burst out of the cage they'd built for her and we were finally talking."

    Yep. She's a real maverick, doin' all those things mavericks do, you betcha.

    You know that feeling you get when a traffic accident happens right next to you as you're moving along, and the farther away you get from it the more uncomfortable you feel that you might have been involved?

    Know that feeling?

    You betcha.

  • um, Kathy? 2 years ago

    And how would a mavericky maverick stay focussed enough to write all those words so fast?

    Can't you get someone who knows English to look over your work before you publish it online?

  • um, Laura? 2 years ago

    what part didn't you understand?

  • Laura 2 years ago

    Seriously, Kathy, you are a terrible writer.

  • Laura 2 years ago

    The part where someone who writes as badly as Kathy Shaidle calls herself a "writer."

  • um, Laura? 2 years ago

    watch it there, lady. The correct term here is "self-styled writer!" And don't you forget it!

  • Doug 2 years ago

    HAHAHAHAHAAHAHAHAAHAHA! Kathy Shaidle is a big joke, Laura. She self-publishes all her "books." I met her once. She looks like a demented 50-something Betty White with brown hair.

  • Doug 2 years ago

    If Betty White were porky, which she isn't.

  • Jake 2 years ago

    You mean Lynn Vincent's book, right? Palin couldn't write if she had to - and she wouldn't waste the time anyway when she could be getting 'face time.'

  • Andrea Harris 2 years ago

    Ah, there's nothing like the name "Sarah Palin" to bring out all the real "smart people." I must tell you, the reflected glow of the brilliance of commenters like Laura and "umm, Kathy," is quite blinding. I can hardly see to type!

    Oh wait -- that's the sun coming through the windows. My bad! Never mind.

  • Um, Doug? 2 years ago

    Did you happen to catch Betty White on Bonnie Hunt's show Tuesday, she was WONDERFUL!

  • Doug 2 years ago

    I love Betty White, and I love Bonnie Hunt. I will look on the Internet for the interview. Thanks!

  • walrus 2 years ago

    @um, Kathy & Laura please take your extreme libtarded lameness elsewhere, man you people are lame beyond words...

  • groetzinger 2 years ago

    I hope there are pictures because the people who buy this book will need them.
    Wink Wink.

  • LIBTARDS 2 years ago

    Yeah good ole left wingnut CNN commentator Wolf Blitzer proved how smart the leftards are on the game show Jeopardy recently. Looks like that was another LIEberal myth about the so-called elitist intellectuals being so smart, huh. Maybe good ole Wolfie is like our dear Dunderhead-in-Chief in that he's completely incompentent without the ole telly-prompter.

    someone faking my name...I'm honored...well, I would be honored if the faker didn't have such a low IQ

  • walrus 2 years ago

    I hear that Sarah Palin's book has a coloring section and a pop-up oilwells section.

  • Doctor My Eyes 2 years ago

    Is it just me or does anyone else picture a fat man in stained drawers when these leftist leave there lame comments.

  • um, Doctor My Eyes? 2 years ago

    Do you have that fantasy often? Might not really want to talk about it in public, if you know what I mean.

  • walrus jr. 2 years ago

    Wolf Blitzer is a dunderhead just like obammy.

  • ????? 2 years ago

    How smart can these perverted libtards really be when they support ACORN and underage illegal prostitutes, now they even support a child molesting pedophile like Roman Polanski!?!?!?

  • Marnie 2 years ago

    Wolf Blitzer's not a liberal, you dumbasses! hahahahaha if you are watching Jeopardy to root for him to lose so you can post about it on a blog later, YOU NEED TO GET A LIFE. Go. Shoo! Get a girlfriend/boyfriend, whichever is applicable. Or a dog. Or a job. Or volunteer somewhere. But good god, that's sad.

  • Marnie is Bi-Polar 2 years ago

    Looks like somebody struck a nerve with libtard Marnie about Wolf Blitzer.

  • UH-UH UM-UM 2 years ago

    Can you picture obam-UH on Jeopardy? "uh-uh-uh, um-um, uh-uh.

  • TOTUS 2 years ago

    Imagine Wolf Blitzer doing an interview with obam-UH and neither one gets to use the teleprompter....

  • Laura 2 years ago

    It actually looks like Marnie struck a nerve with her comment. Maybe someone really does need to get a life. The truth hurts.

  • Wide Load 2 years ago

    Hey Laura have you called Jenny yet?

  • Matt 2 years ago

    Kathy Shi*shingles, you are not a real conversative. I read that you were on goverment disability in Canada for at least 4 years. My aunt hzas lupus and she has to work for a living. You talk a good game but you are a traitor to the cause. You use socialized medicine. You didn't pay for your lupus treatment! You lazy libnut in disguese. Get a job.

  • Paul Brodner 2 years ago

    The Canadian government paid her to stay home and sit on her ass?

  • Matt 2 years ago

    I looked at her resume on her web site and it looks like she never had a job. she wrote something for shopping network once but it looks like she got paid to stay home and write poetry.

  • Matt 2 years ago

    Look at her website kathyshaidle.com. ajd in an interview i read Kathy Shaidle said she stayed home for four years on disability. don't *itch about socialism when its paying your bills. Tea bag, my a*s. You aren't a real tea party member. you're a communist.

  • Bill 2 years ago

    My girlfriend's sister has lupus and she works 9 to 5 like everyone else, as a nutritionist. Who are you to tell us you don't want tax money wasted and your a welfare queen.

  • Matt 2 years ago

    Did the Canadian goverment give you that iBook your so proud of, Kathy? You cant write for a religious newsletter and make aliving and buy an ibook with that. Who is giving you money?

  • Bill 2 years ago

    I read it. It says that something called the catholic news payed for her to go to school. She sure doesn't pay for much for herself. I don't feel sorry for people who spew hate when she's obviously had alot of people be nice to her and pay for things for her including the canadian govenrment.

  • Kyla the ruminator 2 years ago

    I've always had to work. That is why I'm a republican-I believe in self-reliance. I put myself through college and paid my own tuition. It tees me off that this Kathy person is telling everyone else their not working hard enough and asking for handouts when she's in Canada getting all her medical visits for free. Does she really collect disability and stay home?

  • Bill 2 years ago

    Correction: something called Novalis payed her school.

  • Look At The Cockroaches Scatter 2 years ago

    Man all you have to do is just mention the name Sarah Palin and the cockroaches scatter all over the place. Damn the libtard parasites attack the writer or anything within reach for just bringing up the one they fear. Sarah is bringing the pain and you can run but you can't hide.

  • um, whoever you are? 2 years ago

    when you use the term "libtard," you automatically excuse yourself from conversations among the adults in the room.

    Just sayin'

  • walrus 2 years ago

    I just picked up Glenn Beck's new book can't wait for Sarah's, man she's a looker!

  • DITTOHEAD 2 years ago

    BECK-PALIN 2012 & 2016!!!!!

  • walrus 2 years ago

    Man, I just came all over it.

  • walrus 2 years ago

    Glenn, yes, oh baby, oh no, I came all over it again.

  • walrus 2 years ago

    I better clean this up before my fat little wife comes home.

  • walrus 2 years ago

    Why can't I have a wife whose thing doesn't stink?

  • walrus 2 years ago

    She made me put my finger between her labia and rub her the other night, and my whole hand smelled like a dead rat for the rest of the day.

  • walrus 2 years ago

    It might be because my wife is so fat. Her labia get smushed up under her enormous stretch pants and they don't get any air. It makes me sick to think about it.

  • walrus 2 years ago

    I bet Glenn Beck smells good down there, maybe like cornstarch or aftershave.

  • walrus 2 years ago

    I'd like to feel Glenn's freshly shaved cheek against my stomach. It would help make the horrible memories of my wife's repulsive gaping hole go away for just a moment.
