Sarah Palin's book a hit at local stores

Posted:

NASHVILLE, Tenn. - Sarah Palin's "Going Rogue" tour is drawing huge crowds throughout the country.  And it seems that Palin continues to gain more attention everyday, including here in Middle Tennessee, where local book stores say her book is a hit.

"We had Al Gore about two weeks ago, and Mike Huckabee last week," said Brent Humphreys of Davis-Kidd Book Sellers.

While those visits helped the sales of the two men's books, Sarah Palin doesn't have a planned visit to Nashville and her book is still in high demand.

"We have had people come in like Tuesday morning right when we open at 9:00 a.m. asking for it," Humphreys told News 2.

Humphreys believes it doesn't hurt that Palin seems to be everywhere lately, gracing the covers of magazines and making the talk show circuit.

While the former Vice-Presidential candidate has a lot fans, they're not the only ones buying her book. 

Davis-Kidd says some people just want to hear the untold story of the 2008 election.

"We've had a few people who have let us know their opinions on her, positive opinions, but I think the majority of them are just ...wanting to know what she had to say, her side of the story," Humphreys said.

Thousands lined up to have Palin sign her book at one Indiana bookstore.

Some people waited more than 12 hours for the book signing and still couldn't get her signature.  A few of those left in line said they are returning "Going Rogue" in protest.
