Topic: Hard Choices

Hillary Clinton's new book, "Hard Choices," is reportedly struggling with weak sales, moving only about 60,000 to 100,000 copies. Critics point to a "creepy" cover photo, excessive length (600 pages), and a boring book tour as reasons for the poor performance. The book is seen as a transparent attempt to "soft-pedal" her record and cover her tracks regarding the Benghazi scandal.

Hillary Clinton's "Hard Choices" book tour is analyzed as a pre-campaign effort to "freeze the pockets" of Democratic donors. Reports indicate Clinton received a $600,000 salary from NBC News for minimal work, while her public appearances, such as a book signing at a Costco in Virginia, are heavily staged. A chance meeting with Supreme Court Justice Sonia Sotomayor at the Costco is viewed with skepticism by the hosts.
