That's probably true. Of course, she could always offer to pay at a discount, with the seller compensated in cement overshoes if he does not agree.

Besides, I would bet there are a lot of liberal idiot booksellers that would take a hit on revenue in order to see the Beast sell out.

She will if she buys them herself.

What are you talking about? She wouldn't even pay for her own lunch. Look for unions and colleges to buy them up to foist on workers and students.

Why DID the Serpent have the can on his head, anyway? That picture cracks me up.

The Clintons never pay their bills out of their own pockets. Why pay when you have "anonymous donors" and "legal defense funds". She doesn't even pay her own mortgage in Chappaqua. The secret service pays rent equal to the mortgage on her mansion.

Unfortunately the DNC will probably figure some underhanded way to buy them all!

I posted this once before but will be kind to FC on a non evolution thread and post it again.

The advance was $8,000,000.

The retail is $28. If the publisher receives all $28/copy the break even is:

$8,000,000/28= 285714.28571428571428571428571429 copies.

A repeating decimal.

Wonder what the break even number is?
