Politics / Books One Book, Two Book, Red Book, Blue Book

This list comes from Amazon's "Election Heat Map 2012," which shows respective sales of "blue" and "red" books by state. Color me shocked: As of today, Tennessee is firmly in the red column with a 62-38 split. But that's just today, of course. The list updates daily, so be sure to check back often to see if Tennessee liberals can "lead from behind!"
I, for one, wish the list collapsed hardcover, paperback and Kindle editions of any given book into a single entry, so as to avoid having the same title appear multiple times. I can see why Amazon wants all options on the table — this is to help spur sales, obviously — but what matters here is which book, not binding or lack thereof. But hey, I do enjoy a clickable map.
