*By Ron Lowe Santa Monica Pay attention to the road Editor:*

Voters in both parties went for new faces, new voices and a new approach to politics in Iowa’s caucuses. There is nothing new about the Republican winner Mike Huckabee. He is the product of three decades of religious and political inbreeding of the far right.

Mike Huckabee as George Bush’s shadow and as a future Republican president would bring America four more years of Bush administration light; more war, more deficits, more lies and secrecy, and more policies out of touch with mainstream America.

How scary is Mike Huckabee? Fear factor 7.
