Exclusive: Scott Brown plans memoir
Politico ^

Posted on 02/10/2010 7:31:03 AM PST by MarkAccord

The man with the truck will soon be the man with a book.

Sen. Scott Brown (R-Mass.), the party's hottest elected official, has decided to write a book that combines memoir and inspiration.

Gail Gitcho, his new Senate communications director, tells POLITICO: “Senator Brown is honored and humbled to be approached by many people who want him to tell his inspirational personal story about his life leading up to his election as a United State Senator from Massachusetts. He will tell his story in a book in hopes of providing insight and encouragement to others and also to ensure that the record is complete and accurate.

"Part of the book proceeds will be donated to charity," Gitcho continued. "Senator Brown will work with a collaborator so he can continue to focus fully on his service to the people of Massachusetts, which is, and always will be, his first priority.”

Brown has hired Robert Barnett of Williams & Connolly, who is the city's leading counsel to politician-authors, to help him through the process.

The book is permitted under Senate rules. Aides say anything Brown does regarding the book will be reviewed and approved by the Senate Ethics Committee.

No decision has been made on timing or publisher.

You are right on.

We already had that guy doing memoirs before he’d done anything to do memoirs.

C’mon, Scott. Get to work for the peeps.

Dangit!

Now I know why it’s said that the Republicans eat each other. The Dems would love some of the posts here.

>>>>>This book will come in handy when Scott Brown is doing interviews and running for President as the Republican nominee.

I see the infatuation for Scott Brown marches on.

Pro-Roe liberal cult of personality bump.

His beautiful wife, Gail, was also in a music video.
She was a beauty back then too. Did you see it?
If not, I will try to find it. I think I recall the thread.

That’s how he met his wife....They were both models as is one of their daughters (for the same company)

My suggestion is Gail writes the book. Then no one can complain and she can join him full time instead of working a job in MA. It’ll be a best seller and money will no longer be a problem...Same with the Palins. Todd quit his job after the first week of sales.
