Well, ‘tis true. JD was one of the biggest spenders in Congress, and one of the reasons why the GOP took a shellacking in 2006.
No????

The answer to your question is no.
J.D. was the Numero Uno target in the 2006 AZ House races. A huge amount of Soros money (and other anti-American groups) saturated Arizona with anti-J.D. campaigning. It worked. 2006 was a bad year for Republicans.
Just so you know, the same progressive groups are now stockpiling money to use against Michelle Bachman in Minnesota this year. Their strategy worked against J.D. in 2006, but I don't think it will work this year.

Possibly. However, JD was the victim of some weird redistricting, where he went from being the Congressman from conservative Mesa to being the Congressman from the liberal ASU University area.

++++++++++
Are you saying that he was part of the general GOP spending malaise or that he specifically was a big spender (earmarks and pork)?
