“Going Rogue” Shatters Records: 300,000 On First Day
NEW YORK (AP) - “Going Rogue” is going big.
Publisher HarperCollins said Friday that Sarah Palin’s memoir sold 300,000 copies its first day, among the best openings ever for a nonfiction book. In 2004, Bill Clinton’s “My Life” debuted with sales of 400,000 copies. The year before, Hillary Rodham Clinton’s “Living History” started at 200,000.
“Going Rogue” was released this week and its print run already has been increased from 1.5 million copies to 2.5 million, HarperCollins announced Friday. Palin, the former Alaska governor and GOP vice presidential candidate, is in the midst of a nationwide promotional tour.

MADE MY DAY! My 19 year old daughter called me today in excitement over the release of this book. She told me she was going to the book store to buy it right away and that it is her dream to meet Sarah Palin.
Our side scores big time every time a young American is excited about Sarah Palin.
Thank you God.
You accidentally misspelled Rogue as Rouge. “Going Rouge” is the name of hate-Sarah knock off book.

I’m half way through the book and it’s the best policy, inside-politics book I’ve ever read. Yes, and I should know as I used to work inside the big RINO machine. So far in the past week alone, I’ve run into two Palin book readers. I was walking into the Cracker Barrell with my book and a little old couple was walking out clutching their copy. We exchanged a smile and a nod. Then, while I was reading mine at the local diner, a gentleman passing by my table, saw the title at the top of the page, pointed to it and smiled, giving me a thumbs up sign.
