So far, at least nine more books about the 2008 presidential election and Barack Obama have been ordered up by publishers. Most will look at how Obama won and his background. For example, How Barack Obama Won, a state-by-state guide, is due out before Inauguration Day if NBC News Political Director Chuck Todd and cowriter Sheldon Gawiser can deliver. New Yorker's Ryan Lizza will diary Obama's first year in office for a six-figure check. Our fave: Big Girls Don't Cry, due out in 2010, about how the race and players like Sen. Hillary Clinton, Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin, television's Tina Fey, and Michelle Obama changed feminism.
