Don't blame Trump or global warming or astrology.  Djou dragged himself down by becoming a clone of Caldwell.  Civil Beat's poll had Djou AHEAD of Caldwell just before the August Primary Election.  Now, the CB poll has Djou seven points BEHIND.  That is a PLUNGE of SIXTEEN POINTS.  Can't blame anyone but Charles "Me Too" Djou whose closet Democrat colors have been on display during the past few months.  The 2016 election is a false choice between two pro-rail, pro-tax, pro-HART, pro-build rail all the way to Waikiki and UH Manoa and Downtown Kapolei (aka West Kapolei).  Djou is going down, down, down because he betrayed his voter base and the hopes of independent voters who projected their hopes and dreams onto a guy who uses buzzwords like "fiscal conservative" to confuse and fool people.  The time is now for Djou to review his 2010, 2012 and 2014 concession speeches so he can be ready two weeks from now.
