Palin Buys Thousands of Copies of Her Own Book

Sarah Palin has been using her political action committee to buy up thousands of copies of her book, "Going Rogue," in order to mail copies of the memoir to her donors, newly filed campaign records show.

The former Alaska governor and 2008 Republican vice presidential candidate had her political organization spend more than $63,000 on what her reports describe as "books for fundraising donor fulfillment." Link

If Palin was so popular, why would she feel the need to buy her own books? Maybe its because she is using money others have donated her to collect royalties on her own book sales. Sound crazy? ABC says Palin's office hasn't told them whether she is accepting royalties from these book sales.
