Book News: Why Obama Can’t Win!

November 11th, 2008

I love this stuff. Some dude wrote a book about Barack Obama and titled it “A Bound Man”. Fine. No problem. Then he was “forced” to add a subtitle so he chose: “Why we are excited about Obama and Why He Can’t Win”.

OOPS!!!!

From The New York Times:

Many an author has come to incorrect conclusions, but only a few have had the courage to make a prediction in a title that could be directly contradicted. 

Courage…or dummyness (new word I just invented)?

I think that’s hilarious. He claims that he HAD to choose a subtitle and so he picked a ridiculous one. He also claims his analysis inside the book are correct.

Why anyone would buy a book whose title is 100% incorrect is beyond me. My guess is that most people won’t!

    I read this yesterday too. He seemed to protest a little too much, it came off a disingenuous ‘well I HAD to do it, they made me.’

    So far you’ve talked about the title of the book but since you are a book reviewer, where’s the book review?
