PoliticoCharles Djou will announce Wednesday that he plans to challenge freshman Rep. Colleen Hanabusa, who beat him last November, for Hawaii's first congressional district, POLITICO has learned.
His announcement speech, which will be delivered against the backdrop of an empty industrial warehouse, will focus on his ability to work across party lines.
"Instead of focusing on how to grow our economy, our government remains partisan, polarized, and worst of all, paralyzed,” he will say in remarks released exclusively to POLITICO.
“Hawaii, in particular, has become exceptionally isolated and vulnerable in Washington D.C because of the lack of a bipartisan congressional delegation that is willing to talk with both sides of the aisle.”

If he couldn't beat Hanabusa in an anti-Democratic wave year like 2010, he probably doesn't stand much of a chance next year.
