MSNBCDES MOINES, Iowa - Republicans running for president called Wednesday for massive tax reform as they debated for the last time before the leadoff Iowa caucuses on Jan. 3.
Former Arkansas Gov. Mike Huckabee has vaulted to the front-running position, overtaking longtime leader Mitt Romney, the former governor of Massachusetts, in a matter of weeks. As he has advanced, more scrutiny is being paid to his policy positions, especially his advocacy of a so-called fair tax, a national 23 percent sales tax that would eliminate the Internal Revenue Service.
Rudy Giuliani, the former mayor of New York, endorsed a “flatter tax you could file on one form,” but he said the "fair tax" also “would be a good idea.”

Gladd that the SENATOR FROM ARIZONA doesn't understand the tax code since he votes on it and everything. Now if only there were a profession that DID understand this behemoth tax code...if only.
