Even Sarah's ghostwriter is too embarrassed to talk about Palin's new book.

One San Diegan knows all the details of Sarah Palin's soon-to-be released memoir, but don't ask her about it. She can't tell.

Lynn Vincent, Palin's ghostwriter, has signed a non-disclosure agreement. (Believe me she is not going to want to talk about it after it comes out either. She is going to be too embarrassed about the lies.) She has been hard at work on the book for the past few months with Palin, the former Alaska governor and John McCain's running mate.

So quick did their writing progress that the publisher announced yesterday that the 400-page memoir's release date, originally scheduled for spring, has been moved up to Nov. 17, with an e-book version following on Dec. 26.

After resigning as governor in late July, Palin spent most of August in San Diego working with Vincent on the book, “Going Rogue: An American Life.” Rumors swirled about Palin sightings at Vincent's condo complex in north San Diego County. Palin reportedly was joined here by her family and top aide, Meghan Stapleton. This month, Palin huddled with her editors in New York. (I understand that Meg was the only one who stayed with her the entire time. What is up with their relationship anyhow?)

Harper, the publisher, announced a first printing of 1.5 million copies, the same quantity as Sen. Ted Kennedy's recently released book, “True Compass.” (The only difference? Kennedy's book is about a lifetime of public service and Palin's is about less than three years of sabotaging Alaska, hurting her family, and single-handedly destroying the Republican party. Oh yeah, there is a comparison for you.)

Just as Palin was relatively unknown when McCain tapped her as his running mate, Vincent hardly is a household name.

For the past 10 years, she has been working for Christian-based World Magazine, from which she took leave to work full time with Palin.

So Sarah's ghostwrite is somebody who regularly places faith over facts. Well what other kind of person could possibly have subjected themselves to the "Palin pile o' lies"?

And what will Lynn Vincent do when she is besieged with interviews wanting to get her opinion on the other books that completely refute Sarah Palin's version of events? I am guessing her ghostwriting career will come to a screeching halt.
