Palin 'vs' Bush At The Bookstore "WTF"

After a surprising frank  comment by former First Lady  Barbara  Bush , saying she wished Sarah Palin  would just  "stay in Alaska,"  the ex-Governor  is determined  to  have the last laugh , a source said Palin is itching to crush  Barbara's son  George's new book 'Decision Points' with the release of her tome 'America by Heart : Reflections on Family , Faith , and Flag.'

Sarah told talk show host Laura Ingraham on November 24 , that the Bushes are an example  of the 'Blue Bloods who want to pick and choose their winners , instead of allowing  competition to pick and choose the winners.

Palin should know that out-selling the former president isn't going to be easy, 'Decision Points' which looks at key moments  from Bush's presidency as well as his past struggles with alcohol , has brought  him  into an elite group of former (and current )  Presidents - the million book sales club.

Bush book landed at the top of the NY Times  Bestseller List and is currently ranked  #1  on Amazon . Other Presidents on the list includes  the current Commander-in-Chief , whose two books have sold a staggering four  million  plus copies  and Jimmy Carter , who with   well over  a dozen books has sold more than two million copies .

Sarah's last book , 'Going Rouge' sold as many copies as Bush's book in her first week,' a industry source says "although" it's not quite sure her second book will do as well . The early numbers have been good , but not great.

Side Note : President Obama had a book out last week as well - albiet a children's book , which sold 50,000 copies . This sounds very much like the battle  between the brainless...dumb and dumber  only I'm not sure which is which.
