Current Event #5

In this cartoon Walt Handelsman portrays two New Hampshirites warming their hands with a space heater/ Newt Gingrich. Handelsman is suggesting that Newt is so angry about New Hampshire, that he is boiling and potentially heat up his surroundings. Gingrich is reading a paper that says "Mitt UP, Newt DOWN". This cartoon features the recent trends in GOP voting of certain candidates surging, then losing support. Since Newt Gingrich was endorsed by the Union Leader, a conservative New Hampshire newspaper, and Mitt Romney's poll numbers are predicting a decisive victory, this is especially embarrassing for him.
