Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Cartoonists from around the country have submitted their editorial cartoons about the Democratic candidates during the 2008 election campaigns. Using humor to expound upon the topics for debate, the controversies, and the campaigns, no stone is left unturned. Candidates such as John Edwards and Dennis Kucinich came on the campaign trial with strong messages regarding the issues of immigration, marriage laws, and the war in Iraq, just to name a few. Clinton and Obama's regular sparring matches provided entertainment along with their debates on the important issues. But it was the stripping of the Florida and Michigan delegates that caught the attention of Democratic voters throughout the United States and may have ultimately decided the nomination.
