MSNBC host Chris Matthews boasted of the large crowd sizes at his book promotional events across the country Friday on Hardball:
CHRIS MATTHEWS: […] Tonight I'm speaking at what I know will be a big crowd up at the Enoch Pratt Library in Baltimore and later tonight at 10:00, I'll be a guest on Alec Baldwin's Up Late, right here on MSNBC. And tomorrow at 1:00 p.m. in the afternoon, I'll be up in Barrington, Rhode Island at Barrington Books where there must have been a thousand people greeting me for my Kennedy book. […]
Unfortunately for Matthews, Tip and the Gipper is not exactly flying off the shelves. The memoir of Matthews' time working for Tip O'Neil currently ranks #215 on Amazon.
Charles Krauthammer's Things That Matter, Rush Limbaugh's Rush Revere and the Brave Pilgrims, and Bill O'Reilly's Killing Jesus are #1, #3, and #5, respectively.
