Olbermann Speculates About The Chapter Names In Palin's Book (VIDEO)

Countdown host Keith Olbermann couldn't resist speculating about the names of the five chapters of Sarah Palin's forthcoming book. One example: "Chapter Two -- Sports: I Like It When They Win."

He also had Newsweek's Richard Wolffe on to discuss what Palin hopes to gain from her whirlwind book tour. Wolffe is doubtful about the rumor that Palin did not include in an index because she wanted to take a swipe at Beltway insiders (the joke being that people in D.C. will be forced to actually read the whole book instead of using the index to skip right to the parts about them). He thinks it is more likely that the book was so rushed that they simply did not have time include one.

The book reveals that Palin has an interest in having a talk show, to which Olbermann quipped, "I hear there's an opening at 7 o'clock on CNN."

Chapter 1 ......living the life of luxury down by the CEEEMENT pond with a moose and some moonshine.

[BOin08]

btw, with all the focus on Palin, how about a mention Monday night on the gov't seizures of Muslim assets all over NY and NJ over the weekend. What can we expect? Outrage or cheers? I know what you'd say if the Bushies did this.....f­ascist/rac­ist/anti-i­slam, etc

[1962Thunderbird]

Not much has been made of this on all news channels for some reason... I would like to find out more for sure. Its pretty tough to follow ALL the absoulute BS thats going on.

[BOin08]

Palin. Palin, Palin...she couldn't get more air time if she bought ads on Countdown at fives times the going rate...thanks for pumping her book Keith.

[Margo Arrowsmith]

Keith at his most obnoxious best!

But I have to say, I don't know what the deal was, but I am soooooo glad that Richard Wolff is back! He adds so much, intelligence, humor and great analysis. Give him his own show!

Did anyone notice him in Alexandra Pelosi's documentary about the 2000 Bush campaign. He was on the bus with her.

I noticed by the comments of the tr0//s that they are coming out strong and hard in her defense. Why? If she wrote such an excellent tome it should stand on it's own merits. Hmmm...maybe because the AP is fact finding and has shown she has lied in much of it. I know, tr0//s it stings to realize she is all smoke and mirrors. And, you guys and gals have put such faith in her. Feeling kind of silly now, eh?

[goddess1871]

Of course.... as someone once said: "'Hello,' he lied..."

[Lulubelle1]

So far, Palin's chapters seem to be:

1. That Incident is All That Guy's Fault
2. That Other Incident is This Other Guy's Fault
3. Now, THAT Incident Was HER Fault
4. I'm really great, and you'd know it if it weren't for (insert enemy name here)
5. Generic Americans are so great that they deserve someone as great as me to lead them.

Charming, really. Absolutely inspired in its delusional elegance.

[indy girl]

The book title should have been

Sarah Palin: A Narcissist's Viewpoint of Mean People and
How Pro-American I Am and Godly Also Too There

[ohiomark]

Keith is obsessing again. Someone give him his Prozac.

[haval2]

Load o Cr*p...as a running headline...no chapters needed. Truth has been omitted to protect the guilty.

[jordan327]

I need to help olbermann get at least a hundred comments or he might think he's worthless or something.

[VOTER]

Wrong.

You aren't needed now or ever.

[kareemachan]

No, you don't.

[Hollywooddeed]

So, you're mavericky, just like Sarah. And worthless, too.

[Luv2Purple]

“Palin's 5 chapters - hand written in eye liner & moose blood by Sarah...wink, wink...yoo betcha!
Chapter One: A Wink & a Wave: I wanna be a pageant queen!
Chapter Two: Call me Ms Mayor: How I built my own sports arena/house..er empire...by the lake.
Chapter Three: Governor Grizzly: I QUIT Alaska! "Is that unethical, also too" she asks?
Chapter Four: The Best Vajayjay for the job! How I almost ruled the world without preparation!
Chapter Five: Show me the Money! Rich enough to buy my own clothes next campaign.”

[karen1p]

LuvUrComment, Luv2Purple!

[indy girl]

You forgot, "Holding Special! Needs! Kids Face Out Into The Lights For PR"
and "Abstinence! It's Not Just For Having Grandchildren Anymore!"

[princeza]

If a book comes with crayons, it doesn't need an index.

Good job on the chapter titles, KO. But I think you gave her too much credit.

[vgirl1]

The top 5reasons why there is possibly no index.....

1) She asked , "What's an index?".
2) A disordered brain no matter how much ghost written cannot be easily indexed.
3) Again, what's an index?
4) Index not required; box of crayons in back pocket.
5) Index?

[kareemachan]

Well, she thought of index cards and said, "But I'm not going to include any recipes in my book. My moose stew is a family secret!"

[indy girl]

Maybe she thought it was mavericky not to have one.

[mikebarden]

I'm LOL.

[mikebarden]

Heh Dick! Onna MY books don't even got page #'s!

[abbienormal]

I wonder what Beck actually thinks of Palin. My bet is that he is worried that she will get a show and will draw down his ratings.
