NEW YORK – You know the title, now see the cover of Sarah Palin's "Going Rogue." The former Alaska governor's memoir, a top-seller online weeks before publication, will feature an outdoor shot of Palin, wearing an American flag pin on her red fleece top, eyes turned slightly from the camera as she smiles confidently into the horizon, a patchwork of Alaska blue sky and clouds behind her. The image was released Thursday by Harper, an imprint of HarperCollins. The book, originally planned for next spring, is coming out Nov. 17 with an announced first printing of 1.5 million copies. Palin and collaborator Lynn Vincent finished "Going Rogue" just two months after Palin's resignation as governor.

"Maverick" is one thing. But "rogue" is something else and a lot less desirable. Palin cannot even make a good choice about book titles. Gee, I hope it has pictures I can color.
Note: The phrase rogues and vagabonds is applied to a large class of wandering, disorderly, or dissolute persons. They were formerly punished by being whipped and having the gristle of the right ear bored with a hot iron. 2. A deliberately dishonest person; a knave; a cheat. The rogue and fool by fits is fair and wise. --Pope. 3. One who is pleasantly mischievous or frolicsome; hence, often used as a term of endearment. Ah, you sweet little rogue, you! --Shak. 4. An elephant that has separated from a herd and roams about alone, in which state it is very savage. 5. (Hort.) A worthless plant occuring among seedlings of some choice variety. i'd assume intent is some intersection of 3 and 4. first time seeing the book title i read 'going rouge'...
I doubt that you're the only one. It would have been a much better title.
