A prominent Democrat governor’s new book sales are proving abysmal

By Benjamin Weingarten

New York Gov. Mario Cuomo, recently joked that Ebola patients should read his new book while being quarantined, but Cuomo’s book sales have been no laughing matter.

Amid a series of negative-to-tepid reviews, Cuomo’s “All Things Possible: Setbacks and Success in Politics and Life” sold a mere 545 copies during the second week since its release, a 43 percent decline from the 945 copies sold during its first week on the market, according to the New York Times.
