Sarah Palin Book Has Five Chapters
http://www.advocate.com/News/Daily_News/2009/11/12/Sarah_Palin_Book_Contains_Five_Chapters/

The new book from former Alaska governor and Republican vice-presidential nominee Sarah Palin, due on Tuesday, contains just five chapters, but they are reported to be “very, very long.”

Mark Halperin at The Page reports that some Palin associates received copies of Going Rogue, duefor widespread release November 17, in advance.

“Based on discussions with various sources who have seen or been briefed on the book's contents, here's what you can expect from Going Rogue,” says Halperin.

"Just five chapters (but they are very, very long); some score settling with McCain aides she believes ill-served her (names will be named); a hearty bashing of the national media; an account of how her upbringing shaped her maverick sensibilities; a testimonial to the importance of faith in her life; a warm and personal tone, written in Palin's own voice, despite the involvement of a collaborator.”

Halperin says that the book does not contain much in the way of policy prescription. It also lacks an index.


Well, color me surprised - you betcha!

6. Is each chapter one long run-on sentence?
What a waste of paper and ink.

18. Dunno; depends on how good or bad her ghostwriter was.
Does anyone really think that Palin had anything to do with this thing other than supply a few details?

9. Five chapters, five run-on sentences.
And, "Also too" is the title of each chapter.

10. She's still trying to paint incompetence as some sort of deliberate defiance.
And the corporate media's gently probing softballery as persecution.

14. Every life has three chapters - birth, death, and something inbetween. Its the middle that counts.
Her central three chapters are easy to name. She self promoted. She was elected. She quit.
