Coulter's book sales off

[sabra]

(CNN) — Is Ann Coulter losing her mojo when it comes to selling books?

The conservative commentator, whose previous tomes have flown of the bookshelves, isn't having quite as good luck with her latest hardback, "Guilty: Liberal 'Victims' and Their Assault on America."

According to Portfolio Magazine, just over 100,000 copies of the book have sold during its two months on the market. While that number far surpasses most politically themed books, its sales to date rank far below those of other Coulter polemics.

Portfolio reports 2006's "Godless: The Church of Liberalism," sold 279,100 copies in hardcover, 2003's "Treason: Liberal Treachery from the Cold War to the War on Terror," sold 396,600 hardcover copies, and 2002's "Slander: Liberal Lies About the American Right," sold 333,100 copies and an additional 108,300 in paperback.

1. Looks like she's going to have to pose nude or something.

5. Or sell a few more pallets to rightwing 'think-tanks' for pennies on the dollar to get her

numbers up.

12. Great!

Now I'm going to have to drink a bottle of Brain-o to erase that mental image.
Thanks :P

2. Was there ever any mojo?

Seems to me it's more likely that the rightwing orgs just stopped their bulk buying to fluff up her numbers.

19. Now they have Beck to push...

He's even more bat shit crazy than Annie

4. She's going to have to find more Right Wing shills to bulk purchase her book

Clearly without the power of the right wing bulk buy to artificially prop her sales numbers up, she can't sell a damn thing. My Mom works in a thrift store and it's loaded with donated right wing books by Coulter, Hannity and Rush that look like they were never even opened.

8. ahhh

GOOD! She's a hack who only promotes herself. Glad to see people are finally getting sick of her.

9. That's still 100,000 too many. nt

11. Far surpasses most politically themed books? B.S.

I'd like to see a list for that.

The books by Obama, and recent books about John Adams and Lincoln have sold millions.

Even Ron Paul's book has sold more copies.

13. Man, woman, trans, straight, lesbian, animal, vegetable, mineral -

in whatever form Ann is a hate peddling sociopath whose stupid followers can't afford the pay for the hate anymore. They get it free from Limbaugh anyway.

14. Wingnut Welfare Providers Are Cutting Back

The Richard Mellon Scaifes' and others' fortunes have fallen along with the stock markets. They have been forced to cut back on support for their favorite charities, just like everyone else. Buying palletloads of Ann's books to prop up sales numbers is no longer an option. Many organizations who recieve Wingnut Welfare have closed shop, Freedom's Watch being one of the most prominent.

15. She'll have to go back to her old job,

mopping up peep-show booths.....

16. "Flown off the bookshelves?"

Let's set the record straight - a lot of right-wing mags and website buy her crap in bulk to give away or as a cheap up-sale for whatever else they're pushing. That's what's pushed her into best seller land before, but now that that everyone is suffering, her cohorts can't do that anymore.

17. She should change the page size and print on good quality paper as well.

If she made the page size the same as the standard bird cage bottom, a few of her books would be just the ticket for your little Chirpy and Tweetie to keep the bottom of their cages clean all the year long!

18. Best news I've heard about her since her jaws got wired shut.

There are some signs that things are getting better not worse.

20. Queue the tiny violins

All together everyone "AWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW" :cry:

For the record... :sarcasm:

21. People have finally tired of the ugliness of Ann Coulter
