California's Democratic Gov. Gavin Newsom was caught by a political action committee, the "Campaign for Democracy Committee," which purchased 67,000 copies of his book, "Young Man in a Hurry: A Memoir of Discovery," making it a best-seller on one of the country's most influential listings. The practice is not illegal, but about two-thirds of the print copies sold were bought by the PAC. Federal records reveal that the PAC paid over $1.5 million to purchase and distribute copies of the book through the program. A spokesman for Newsom, Nathan Click, claimed the PAC made enough money to cover the cost of the books and some of the publisher's purchases.
