Guide to Running For Governor

By , About.com GuideSeptember 1, 2003

Follow me on:

Book publishers are engaged in a mad scramble to cash in on California's "Cirque du Sacramento," according to highly unreliable sources cited by the Los Angeles Times. Among the titles in the works: "Running for Governor for Dummeys," "The Complete Idiot's Guide to Defeating a Recall," "Dr. Atkins' Total Recall Diet" and "Chicken Soup for the Fringe Candidate's Soul." The books cover such topics as:

• How to form a right-wing conspiracy (without Hillary Clinton finding out);
• How to appeal to the political left, right and center without compromising your lack of principles;
• Developing a personality in just 7 weeks; and
• How to divert media attention from your failures by planting stories about your past smooch-a-thon with Cybill Shepherd.

See Roy Rivenburg's hilarious column in the Los Angeles Times for the latest "Recall Madness."
