Drudge is now reporting that Obama's adulation tour has helped him sell nearly 67,000 copies of his Audacity of Hope book to land him at number 2 on the bestsellers list (just behind John Grisham who has not yet made his 2008 intentions clear although have no fear - the hunchback from Meet the Press is on the case)! That is amazing!!! How wonderful for the junior senator from that bastion of political idealism and purity, the state of Illinois. That means nearly 1 in every 4500 Americans now has a copy of this precious memoir - which means about 2 in every 45,000 Americans may actually read it!
Today is truly a great day for Barack Obama and hence a great day for America! I, for one, agree with this week's bestsellers list, Senator, and no matter where their fickle numbers place you in the ensuing weeks, you will always be number 2 to me.
BORU

Or it could simply mean that Antoin "Tony" Rezko bought 67,000 copies to and buried it Obama's yard . . . oops, I mean Rezko's vacant lot that just happens to a former parcel of Obama's yard.
