DRUDGE REPORT 2002®





Daschle Ink$ Book Deal
Mon Aug 05 2002 11:38:46 ET

Senate Majority Leader Tom Daschle has sold CROWN PUBLISHERS a memoir of the 107th Congress, a project that may say as much about his presidential ambitions as about how he became the Democrats' most powerful voice of opposition to President Bush.

NYT reported Monday: The book, "scheduled for release in late 2003, is to be Daschle's account of two turbulent years in politics that began with the contested presidential election of 2000 and the Florida recount," and follows through the switch of control that "made Daschle the most powerful Democrat in Washington and one with a story to tell."

The book's publication date "brings the possibility of a high-publicity tour just in time for the 2004 primary season." Those familiar with the bidding said Daschle "drew an advance of more than $500,000 in an auction that lasted four days last week and involved almost a dozen publishers."

Potential Democratic presidential candidates Al Gore and Joe Lieberman are both working on books with their wives, the TIMES adds.
