Good point, because there is no publicity for the book (and for some reason has not been searchable on Amazon by title recently). Nonetheless, over 6000 copies of the first two editions have been sold, mostly at my speaking engagements around the country. Republicans who have praised it include Illinois Senator Peter Fitzgerald ("one of the best books I ever read") and Maryland Lt. Governor Michael Steele ("outstanding" "phenomenal" and his "favorite book"), and Justice Clarence Thomas cited it in a Supreme Court opinion.

What rank is your book, sir?

Haven't written one?

I thought not...

It's very (very) rare to find any self-published book that has sold this many copies (6,000) let alone in a 3rd printing. You denigrators of Grand Old Partisan's well researched perspective may well be wise to reserve judgment until you've read the book.

I have the book now (thanks for signing it Grand Old...) and my initial scan of it makes it look pretty good, especially from the pen of a Yankee... ;)

Conservative Republicans have always been about a strong United States, freedom and equal rights...and its time we stopped Democrats from re-re-rewriting our history, and that we reclaim the honorable legacy of the Party of Lincoln.

The neo-Confederates in the conservative movement don't do us any good--in that they really do accept the Democrat version of history, and their neo-racism (though denied) alienates the groups which could be most benefited by and beneficial to, conservativism, namely poor blacks and hardworking new (legal) immigrants.

The biggest embarrassments to Republicans in the last year have come from the (former) Democrats from the Deep South--certain Senators who shall remain un-named. Yes it was an unfair hatchet job by the press and Democrats, but hey, Republicans need to consistently and loudly stand for the principles of racial equality, not allowing any more that to merely be a catch phrase of the Democrat plantation.

Republicans are a party originally formed by principle--and through those principles, applied to our day, we shall prevail.
