It's the Democrat way!

Ah I get the title now....

You left out this part from your own link:

"In the case of this book, the overwhelming preponderance of evidence was that sales were limited to strategic bulk purchases," she wrote.
​

The old ballot-box stuffing trick.

"In the case of this book, the overwhelming preponderance of evidence was that sales were limited to strategic bulk purchases," she wrote.

The old ballot-box stuffing trick.

Of course, the preponderance of evidence was not presented beyond that statement.

Billy lies by omission.

The Times responded by telling HarperCollins that the book did not meet their criteria for inclusion.

"We have uniform standards that we apply to our best seller list, which includes an analysis of book sales that goes beyond simply the number of books sold," Times spokesperson Eileen Murphy explained when asked about the omission. "This book didn't meet that standard this week."

Asked to specify those standards, Murphy replied: "Our goal is that the list reflect authentic best sellers, so we look at and analyze not just numbers, but patterns of sales for every book."

Both HarperCollins and the Cruz campaign declined to comment on the matter.
