BEIJING -- Sarah Palin's new book may already be a best-seller, but President Barack Obama says he probably won't read it.
The president says he's sure sales of "Going Rogue" will do well without his readership. While he wouldn't say whether he thinks Palin will run for president in 2012, he says she has proved to be a popular figure with a large following in the Republican party.
In an interview promoting her book, Palin rated Obama's performance as president as a 4 out of 10. Obama dismissed the criticism, saying he and the former Republican vice presidential candidate have different political philosophies.
Obama spoke during interviews with CBS News, CNN and Fox News.

Reader Reactions
Palin could learn a thing or two from him about beig dismissive of someone with a smile on one’s face. So far, she wants to always get in the last word and have the final say on every critique or swipe at her and she needs to get over it. Obama just laughs it off on camera - and gets even off.
Gee, no reason to get bitter over Conservatives overwhelming success on best seller lists again.
If liberals had popular ideas, they could write books that sell as well outside of universities.
And if liberals would actually buy books instead of loitering around Barnes and Nobles all day stealing free peaks without purchase, maybe their writers would show up on the charts.
Another example of a closed mind:“I will not read Palin’s book.“
Minds only function when fully opened. His is closed.
He’s too busy running around campaigning for 2012 elections, even though he hasn’t finished his first year in his first term! He’s living in a cushy White House, while others are losing theirs due to foreclosures/job losses.
Sarah Palin - 11
Obama - 0
11 - the number of “fact checkers” the biased AP assigned to “fact check” Sarah Palin’s new best seller.
0 - the number of “fact checkers” the biased AP sent to “fact check” the book Saul Alinsky penned for Obama.
Fair and Balanced. No doubt.
Dear Leader is too busy reading “Rules for Radicals” and “The Cat in the Hat.“
“Sarah Palin’s new book may already be a best-seller…“
It is only a “best seller” due to the very large volume of pre-published purchases by extreme right-wing groups/organizations, just to make it *seem* like a best-seller. They then turn around and sell it at a large discount. It’s a typical pathetic right-wing ploy with little basis in reality.
