US Representative Christopher Smith, a fourteen-term New Jersey Republican, has tuition troubles.

His daughter attends the University of Virginia, and the family is saving $20,000 a year by claiming her as a VA resident — UVA’s out-of-state tuition is $14,500 a semester.

Smith’s opponent, Joshua Zeitz, was quick to jump on the revelation, saying through a spokesperson that Rep. Smith’s decision to seek in-state tuition shows “that after 28 years in Washington, he has a sense of entitlement, he thinks he’s entitled to things average folks aren’t entitled to and he ends up spending all of his life in Herndon, Va.”

Oops.
