Mr. Djou Goes To Washington

Chad Blair/Civil Beat

The glow from Charles Djou's big win is likely to dim quickly as Democrats remain in control of Washington. At home, the spotlight is already shifting to local Democrats and other races.

When Congressman-elect Djou arrives in the nation's Capitol this week, he will have his first opportunity to act on his oft-cited commitment to fiscal responsibility.

All Washington does is "spend, spend, spend," Djou said numerous times during his campaign. He opposes tax increases, "unexamined" earmarks, and a "bloated federal budget," according to his platform.

Well, guess what: Washington is set to tax, spend and bloat again.
