1. As unfair as it is, I just love how he draws Bill and Hillary
That has to be the most unsympathetic charicature of them by any major cartoonist -- Bill as a giant country bumpkin and Hillary as a troll-like midget in a business suit with bulging (ie greedy) eyes. Wow. At least he's been consistent.

This is the first time I have seen someone capture the Biden look.


edit to add that he needs to work on his Obama.

The rest are great - perfect.

7. He's improved his characterization of Obama
In the beginning it was so stereotypically "black"--he had him saying, "Mis' " instead of "Miss" and stuff like that and I hated it. Now he looks strong and competent, not wimpy or lightweight like before.
