How can we tell whether the price drop on this book is because of a price war or because they have run out of conservative republicans willing to pay $26.95 for pages of "you betcha" and a dearth of literate readers willing to spring for the gossip according to sarah?

The ultimate question: Will the publisher sell enough copies to earn back the advance? If not, will the publisher then try to recoup losses by coming out with a brand new ebook device, perhaps called the You Betcha! that comes preloaded with the gossip according to sarah (I can see it now -- a screen saver of sarah saying "you betcha!", a wireless link to the Michelle Malkin book club for further reads, and a TTS system that repeatedly says "click original intent to start").
