NEW YORK (CBS/AP) November is shaping up to be a big month for political memoirs.

We've already learned of the publication that month of former Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice's "No Higher Honor," which covers her years in the Bush administration.

Now, we learn that a yet-untitled memoir by GOP presidential hopeful Michele Bachmann will be published in November by Sentinel, a conservative imprint of Penguin Group (USA).

Sentinel, which made the announcement Monday, declined comment on whether Bachmann had assistance on the book, which already has been written. Former Wall Street Journal columnist John Fund said reports that he worked on it were wrong. He said that he had no involvement with the book.

According to Sentinel, Bachmann will "share previously untold stories'' about her private life, "including her roles as a tax attorney, a wife, a mother of five and a foster mother of 23."

As a member of the House of Representatives, Bachmann is not permitted to receive an advance against royalties.

Virtually all of the Republicans candidates have published books, a standard for modern presidential campaigns.

My family came here to the US astride their dinosaurs after one of the husbands in the group suggested we do so. We of course did, as even then before the Bible was written we learned to defer to our husbands. The first milenia or so was tough. There were no govt. jobs, or subsidies as there was no govt., and my family being horrible with geography kept getting lost. Finally, after there was a govt. we worked for it, and collected handouts while secretly plotting it's overthrow! After my husband suggested I work as a tax attorney, I knew the time was right. After taking two whole cases from beginning to end in my time for the IRS I had enough knowledge to govern. I didn't want to let others know of my plan so I sat as chair of no committees, and authored no legislation. Finally, after confusing everyone as to my whereabouts by making geograpphy mistake, and calling the founders abolitionists(that ought to get 'em), I was finally ready for my grand moment, and what happens, but my distant cousin sarah has the same idea! Her family came over on the dinosaur next to ours. Drat, I must come out with a book ala Sarah to make money as well. That way I'll be ready in my big house for the rapture. God LOVES big houses!!! THE END.

Wonder who will write it for her...

Maybe if politicians spent less time cashing in on their - often wasted - 'memoirs' we might actually solve some the problems facing this country.
