But except for chief strategist Steve Schmidt's concise dismissal of the book ("fiction") and communications adviser Nicolle Wallace's somewhat more lengthy refutation on The Rachel Maddow Show, virtually everyone in the McCain-Palin orbit abided by the Senator's wishes - to keep the secrets of the campaign secret...
...facts in our book and on his presidential bid. Palin, after all, was a bet that didn't pay off - and probably backfired - for the Arizona Republican.

Admission will be free, with some 5,000 tickets directly in front of the stage reserved for VIPs. Garson says he expects...
...Garson says the authorities, who have already green-lighted Show of Peace, probably understand that the concert would be a good way of improving China's image overseas. "Everybody is looking for the next big event that will put China in a positive light since the Olympics," he says. "I think it's very powerful that this statement of green and harmony is coming from China...
