NEW YORK (AP) — Sarah Palin will soon be on a holiday season book tour.

Starting next week, the former Alaska governor and GOP vice presidential candidate will be promoting her new book, "Good Tidings and Great Joy: Protecting the Heart of Christmas." Publisher HarperCollins announced Tuesday that Palin's tour will begin Nov. 12 at a Barnes & Noble in Bethlehem, Pa., and end Dec. 7 at a Barnes & Noble in Roanoke, Va.

Similar to previous Palin book tours, she will skip New York City, Los Angeles, Chicago and other major metropolitan areas. Stops include military posts in Fort Campbell, Ky., and Fort Benning, Ga.; a Costco in Plano, Texas; and a Wal-Mart in Wausau, Wis.

Palin's other books are the best-sellers "Going Rogue" and "America by Heart."

From Borders to see if she would show up at the buildings they used to be in.

6. Rand's version is a bit different from Dickens', tho...

It's more like a mashup of the Dickens classic and "Atlas Shrugged."

They printed "Nine Pounds" on the cover. That's not the price in the UK, it's the weight.

5. Great! I'm in the market for toilet paper and firewood, as it turns out.

7. 'Protecting the Heart of Christmas'

Sounds like her idea of a tribute to Darth Cheney.

8. This tour will give her an excellent opportunity to finally read the book. nt

9. Best seller, "Going Rogue"? Where was it a best seller? More like a flop.

11. Wingnut groups bought them up to offer as premiums for fundraiser donations...

...before they went on the 50-cent shelf at Wal-Mart.

10. Is she going to have a big tour bus again with her picture on the side of it?

[pinboy3niner]

12. We should have someone firin' those shots and ringin' those bells to warn us...

[B Calm]

13. OMG, great idea!

14. That dumb woman is a first rate grifter

Damn!
