Thompson Flier in Iowa Attacks Huckabee

December 07, 2007 11:15 AM

ABC News' Christine Byun Reports: "Why is Mike Huckabee attacking Fred Thompson?" asks a new flier sent out in Iowa this week by the Thompson campaign.

But, it is the former Tennessee Senator and GOP hopeful who has launched criticism of former Gov. Mike Huckabee, R-Ark., who leads Thompson in the most recent Iowa polls.

The fliers, which were mailed to Iowa voters Tuesday, tie the former Arkansas governor to another former Arkansas governor -- former President Bill Clinton.

The mailer features side-by-side profile pictures of both Huckabee and Bill Clinton, say the two "share a D lifetime rating for their tax and spend policies."

The flier also states Huckabee, "talks like a Republican but taxes like a Democrat," while outlining Thompson's tax relief plan, which includes several tax cuts. 

This flier is the latest outreach to Iowa voters by the Thompson campaign as January 3rd approaches. Despite airing television ads in the state, Thompson has yet to gain momentum in the polls in Iowa.

He heads to Iowa today for his sixth visit to the early-voting state.
