Five Easter Cartoons About the 2012 Primary

I know a lot of cartoonists hate drawing holiday cartoons, but I always look forward to using the unique visual imagery every holiday has to offer in new and interesting ways.

As we’re in the midst of a contentious Republican primary for the party’s Presidential representative, I thought it’d be cool to post five cartoons weighing in on the race using Easter imagery. It’s just too bad they weren’t all drawn on eggs…

Romney Fever

Republicans have a fever, and the only prescription is more Mitt Romney!

Romney had an overwhelming win in the Illinois primary last night. If that wasn’t enough momentum, former Florida governor Jeb Bush then officially endorsed Romney, putting more establishment weight behind the GOP front-runner.

Regardless of what the establishment thinks, the gaffe-prone Romney still has a problem connecting to voters. Romney’s attempts to relate to the electorate come across as pandering. This is nothing new for Romney – I drew this cartoon about him during the 2008 campaign, and it still applies today…

We’ll see if the combination of a win in Illinois and the support of Jeb Bush will help Republicans coalesce around Romney. For now, he has a long way to go, according to our cartoonists…

The Winner of Mississippi and Alabama: Cartoonists

Last night, in two hard-fought GOP primaries a real winner finally emerged from the frothy mess that has been the Republican field – the nation’s editorial cartoonists!

With Rick Santorum winning both Mississippi and Alabama, it almost guarantees this crazy GOP Primary will continue on, possibly all the way to the party’s convention in Tampa. And if Newt Gingrich drops out, Rick Santorum would become a formidable candidate for Team Romney to contend with. All this is good news for cartoonists, who have been enjoying this primary about as much a Mitt likes a bowl of cheesy grits.

Here are some cartoons about the great, white conservative hope.

And The Primary Marches On…

For those of you feeling weary of this GOP Primary and hoping it will end soon can start crying now. Super Tuesday has come and gone, and we’re no closer to having this race sorted out then we were yesterday.

Yes, Mitt Romney won Ohio, but not by much. Santorum managed to snag Tennessee and Oklahoma, but is still being kept in check by Newt Gingrich, who won his home state of Georgia and is helping to split the conservative vote.

About the only thing anyone can agree on is that Super Tuesday has set up a long, draw-out slugfest to the GOP nomination. With that in mind, here are some cartoons that I thought fit the mood moving forward…
