Who needs the governorship of Alaska when you have an eight-figure book deal.

using the book as a retail loss leader--that is marking it way down in order to cash in on all of the other products due to her book traffic. This book has sold and will sell very very well. 400+ pages.

a higher standard. The value of this book deal in comparison, will be private since she is no longer in office; but the presales have been unprecedented and the buzz is at least 8-10 million. Both WalMart and Amazon are

Sarah Palin has a degree in journalism and is a life long journal keeper. She worked with Lynn Vincent on this book and every politician has a ghostwriter. She happened to disclose hers as she is always held to

Sara palin can write? I think she should go back to school and learn English and expecially geography.
Also, who the hell wants to read her book if someone else wrote it. She is a joke! And puts lipstick on her pig

Good for her! She's been treated horribly. I'm glad her book has been #1 for many weeks, even though it hasn't been released yet! By the way it's 7 figures, not 8.

Radar - last time I checked a million dollar deal is SEVEN figures not 8. Fix it please - you are embarrassing yourself.

Wonder how much her ghost writer got? Sarah Palin is the single most ignorant person to ever run for national office, bar none. If she would have actually wrote this book it would have come with a box of eight jumbo crayons
