Mike Huckabee's campaign today said it was launching an ad titled "Tax Cuts Matter" in Iowa, even though a Monday note to supporters said the ad would be playing exclusively in New Hampshire.
The ad discusses his record as governor of Arkansas, saying he cut taxes more than 90 times and left behind a budget surplus.

Mike Huckabee's new Iowa ad, called "Our Values," highlights his opposition to abortion: "The pro-life position was the one espoused by our founding fathers," he says in the ad.
Huckabee shot this ad and two others in Little Rock on Sunday. One of the other ads was the negative ad he decided not to run today. In a note to supporters, Huckabee explained his decision on that ad:
"This morning, I ordered my staff to pull the ad; I told them I do not want it to be run. If it was run at all, it would be until the stations pulled it off their schedules. And we are now committed, from now through the rest of the caucuses, that we will run only the a ds that talk about why I should be president, and not why Mitt Romney should not.
