And who the fuck's buying them?

Any *bulk buys* influencing sales?

The guy's a fucking clown.

His version of the new America involves buying more distressed companies, breaking them apart, and selling the pieces.

Mostly because it works for him. Not so much for the people.

But then, it's all about the Constitution.

Right ... !

1. If you know the right bookstores around the country

3. Well, when you consider that a dagger (�)

on the NY Times Nonfiction Best Seller list designates that it has had plenty of "bulk purchases",

what does the significance of having TWO daggers behind Romney's book mean? That it ONLY is represented by bulk purchases? How many of these books are being shipped to Romney's house?

Plus, the fact that this list (link: http://www.nytimes.com/2010/03/21/books/bestseller/besthardnonfiction.html?ref=books) is for the 3/21 list, and the current list is for the 3/28 NY Times, and it's already dropped to #4 on the list (link: http://www.nytimes.com/2010/03/28/books/bestseller/besthardnonfiction.html?ref=books) ... that is significant ...
