Fiscal restraint  
 
It's typical around the holiday season for politicians to 
send cards to reporters wishing them a Merry Christmas or 
happy holidays (the latter for the more PC of the bunch). 
My colleague Matt Canham and I just received our card from 
Jason Chaffetz, former chief of staff to Gov. Jon Huntsman 
Jr. and now a candidate for the 3rd Congressional District 
seat held by Rep. Chris Cannon.  
 
That's right, we got one card. 
 
"I'm running as the fiscal conservative, so only one card 
for the two of you," Chaffetz hand wrote in purple marker 
inside the card. 
 
At least he has Cannon beat so far. We haven't received any 
holiday wishes from him yet.
