Hillary Clinton books are falling like autumn leaves next week. There's A Woman in Charge: The Life of Hillary Rodham Clinton by Carl Bernstein, Extreme Makeover by Bay Buchanan, and Her Way: The Hopes and Ambitions of Hillary Clinton, by Jeff Gerth and Don Van Natta.
Either the publishers don't have much faith in these books or they're making extremely poor marketing decisions! If the publishers have confidence, why wouldn't they wait until right before the primary season. Or, better yet, until after Hillary is the official Democratic candidate? My guess is that the publishers don't see any of these books as anything special and are therefore rushing to print to make sure they don't get overshadowed by the other books.
My suspicion is that the books will end up making Hillary look pretty good by reminding people of all the crap's she's gone through and how (relatively) well she's dealt with it.
Not that I actually would buy the books.
