Michele Bachmann's campaign autobiography, Core of Conviction, is not scheduled for release until Nov. 21, but it's not too soon to start fundraising off the book. In a message to supporters Wednesday, Bachmann offered advanced copies of her book for a $75 apiece. For $125, supporters can get a personalized autographed copy. In her book, she promises, "I will open up about myself, and tell the stories that shaped my goals and determination to fight for America. I speak from the heart about my childhood, growing up in Iowa and Minnesota -- grounded by my faith and family; about following my dreams -- attending college and law school; about starting a successful small business and family in Minnesota; and about my 'accidental' career in politics." She also asks for support to combat "liberals across the country [who] believe if they defeat our campaign, the Tea Party movement and the values of constitutional conservatism will be eliminated -- gone for good."

As an eviction crisis has seemed increasingly likely this summer, everyone in the housing market has made the same plea to Washington: Send money — lots of it — that would keep renters in their homes and landlords afloat.
