70 people have purchased a book written by Florida?s Senate President Mike Haridopolos. The sales have brought in four hundred and eighty-eight dollars for Brevard Community College, the state school that paid Haridopolos 150-thousand dollars to write the book. Progress Florida, a left leaning political group, began investigating the sales a few months ago, after the deal between Haridopolos and the college was brought to light and critics claimed the book wasn?t that good.
