Huckabee is the only GOPer running who advocates the fair tax, and he has no chance at getting the nomination. That makes debating the fair tax moot as far as this election cycle goes. Others want to cut the income tax. That will contrast nicely with Dems’ calls for raising taxes.

Wrong. Read my tag line. Duncan Hunter is a cosponsor of The Fair Tax. Regardless of that point having support from a candidate is helpful but not essential. President Bush didn't support denying amnesty for illegal aliens this summer but a strong grassroots movement by the people forced Congress critters to reject amnesty for illegals at least twice. The Fair Tax is experiencing the same growing grassroots momentum.

Others want to cut the income tax. That will contrast nicely with Dems’ calls for raising taxes.

That's the same BS and line of thinking people have been fed for the last 94 years since the income tax was enacted and it has resulted in an increasingly burdensome and complex tax code. It's time to think outside the box with The Fair Tax.
