'Going Rouge' To Come Out Same Day As Palin's Book

[RamboLiberal]

A collection of essays about former vice presidential candidate Sarah Palin, titled Going Rouge, will be released the same day as Palin's own much-awaited book, Going Rogue.

The essays, collected by The Nation senior editors Richard Kim and Betsy Reed and written by Max Blumenthal, Katha Pollitt, Matt Taibbi and several others, will examine "the nightmarish prospect of her continuing to dominate the nation's political scene."

And yes, the book is available for pre-order.

1. Could we go back to Balloon Boy? Much more intellectually challenging...

:puke:

[ddeclue]

2. Going Rogue> Going Rouge - What an obvious turn of events

Her publicist and the publishers didn't see it coming like a freight train?

:rofl:

Betcha "Going Rouge" gets more legit sales than "Going Rogue"..

:rofl:

3. Storm clouds..lightning and thunder in the background! ha ha ha

Sarah Palin : An American Nightmare...
Bwhaaahhahahahahaha :rofl:

7. It should have been an erupting volcano or nuclear blast

My gawd, can you imagine that woman in the White House, even in an advisory capacity?

[eppur_se_muova]

15. Really! AK volcanoes have frequent eruptions -- low-hanging fruit got missed! nt

4. Wow, is this for real? If so, that's awesome!

I thought it had to be an Onion piece.

Will there be lawsuits? Could there be?

5. Funny. But I have to say this is pretty lame marketing idea and in the end is only

going to cause problems for the customer service desk at Barnes & Noble.

I'll read whatever I can get for free on the net, if I want to read about Bible Spice.

Why anyone on earth would shell out $24.95 for even a negative/critical book about her, I can't imagine.

[Brother Buzz]

13. Price: $16 paperback; $10 e-book. Barnes & Noble won't be carrying it

Print + Ebook: $20

Who has it on the net for free?

6. Neither book will ever appear on my reading list

If there are any particularly noteworthy snippets in the 'rouge' version, they're certain to appear here and elsewhere.

I concur with the other poster who said the 'rouge' book would probably have higher legit sales than the one ghostwritten for MILFy McMooseburger.

8. BWAHAHAHA!!! ....... PWNED!!!

:rofl:

[slay]

12. Yeah that is classic! Hooray for The Nation!

What an awesome move! :applause:

[Mojambo]

9. Oh, the confusion is gonna be epic.

I can just imagine some freeper opening open his Christmas present and getting the wrong book.

Love it!

[LurkerJohn]

11. Not quite...

The book is only available directly from the O/R publishing website. It won't be in stores.

[thereismore]

10. The rightwingers can't differentiate between rogue and rouge - dislexic on top of being stupid. nt

[MineralMan]

14. I wonder how many of the Limbeckers are going to end up with

the wrong book...

[ThoughtCriminal]

16. Going Rouge won't outsell Going Rogue, but...

is less likely to be found at Dollar Tree by next spring.

[BR_Parkway]

17. And Levy will be letting it all hang out in Playgirl - should be an interesting

month
