Market for 'My Life'
Customers lined up in Washington and New York to buy President Clinton's new autobiography, and the publisher claimed record sales. But bookstores across the country seemed not to be sharing in the demand. The San Francisco Examiner reported only a "smattering of people" in bookstores there, while one Palm Beach, Fla., bookseller complained about what he called a "real slow day." Meanwhile, bookstores in Houston, Virginia Beach, Tucson, San Antonio, Sacramento, Cincinnati and elsewhere reported modest sales of "My Life" — and no lines.

We saw stacks of his book at our local Kroger's here in Cincinnati. My youngest daughter Laura saw as we walked by and said - "look at THAT, Clinton's book" and laughed - a lady nearby chuckled too. My response - "yeah, we already know his story"......I'm not buying it or checking it out from the library!

saw them stacked high at our local Target too....did not see any fist fights or mob scenes though.

hee hee...I grab O'relly's book and put it in front of Slick's

Can we say more media hype in order to boost SAGGING SALES!!! Gotta make up that multimillion dollar advance for bs and lies we all know about already somehow.

Saw a bunch of the books at the book store in the mall. I asked the lady if the book was selling and she said "not yet, it is still early" I laughed and said okay thanks.

Must be a liberal. The book is going to sell the most EARLY. It's a book.

I agree Brent. lol. That is why I laughed.

j - back when Michael Jackson was on numerous magazine covers, a few months ago, I would cover up his mug with other magazines. Couldn't stand to look at his face. LOL

I'd only buy it if we were in a situation where toilet paper was unavailable.

hmmm...could core out the inside and use it for a cigar box! what do you think?

No, vbhoutex...HILLARY'S book was "abrasive"; Bill's book is...well..."slick".

The last time I wanted a book that was scheduled to have high demand.. it was in high demand..

Last year right before my birthday.. I really wanted a copy of "I am a soldier too.. the Jessica Lynch story"..

I got it.. But I had to go back and forth to Target 4 TIMES before my neighbor finally was able to buy it for me for my birthday

I saw the book displayed at Kroger as well. As soon as I walked in the door, there was a table full of them with a huge 40% off suggested retail sign...certainly not a line. lol

I wouldn't spend a dime on the book.

I would not wipe with the pages of that book. You have no idea where they have been.

I wouldn't buy a book from any politician. They are ALL liars It's part of the job
