Um.... Huckabee, about eliminating payroll taxes
you may want to explain that these payroll taxes are the Social Security and Medicare taxes that currently support seniors everywhere and in Iowa where, no doubt, they are an important segment of the caucus goers.

And people in Iowa are not known for their conspicuous consumption. So you may have to explain to them that replacing the progressive income tax with sales tax can make a big dent in the government programs like, say, farm programs that are very important to Iowans.
