Romney's Flip Flops Are Well Known. Why no books?

[TomCADem]

...Yet, there are very little critical books out there that really lay out how his positions seem to shift by the minute. There is a virtual cottage industry of folks re-publishing Fox News talking points on President Obama, yet there is nothing out there that simply collects and compares Romney's numerous contradictions. Romney could be the next President. You would think that it would be easy to publish a book that tells the truth about Romney in his own words.

1. The difference is that Obama's the president

If Romney becomes president, expect a rash of books about him. And who knows, there probably already are some. There are books about Sarah Palin, after all.

2. "The audacity of Trope"?

It was all metaphor, I didn't mean any of it and you can't make me stick to it.

3. Perhaps after the convention when interest is highest. n/t

4. If he won't even answer Qs from reporters on his campaign plane now, what

would he have said to authors who wanted series of long probing interviews with him?

Publishers are very leery of publishing bios that got no cooperation from their subjects. At least until print is replaced completely by e-Book and print-on-demand, published books last FOREVER. One mistake and you're risking millions of dollars in potential legal penalties and lawyers' fees.

5. because the left is intelligent

6. Because, until a few short moths ago ...

... Romney was basically a nobody. He was a one term governor with one accomplishment (his health care plan).
