1. Not very 'accurate'

Edited on Mon Jan-28-08 02:57 PM by kirby

I'm not familiar with Horsey, but his cartoons do not look much like the subjects. Richardson does't look anything like him. Same with Hillary. Not very close with Obama. Romney not too bad, Huckabee not bad. Is that supposed to be Jimmy Carter and Ted Kennedy?

3. On the donkey is Edwards (I think)

The ones running in the river and over the hill are McCain (who looks kind of like Ted Kennedy), Huckleberry, Mittens, Ghouliani, and Fred Thompson on the crest of the hill.

I disagree with your contention that his caricatures aren't accurate.... I mean they are caricatures.

4. 'Accurate' is relative

I didn't mean accurate in a photographic sense, I meant it in a caricature sense. To me, a caricature exaggerates the features of the subject and if you are familiar with the real person, you will instantly 'get' who is being caricatured. I'm not 'getting' these Horsey drawings.

Just my opinion....

5. His Clinton is very interesting. If you go back to the '90s, it was

pretty accurate, considering how she looked then. Most every caricature of her looked about like his did. It seems that as she's aged (especially near the mouth and jaw) and changed her style (especially in the hair), his caricature of her has evolved of its own accord, with little input from the appearance of the real-life Hillary.

2. That's a nice interview

I had really liked Richardson (well until the Logo debate...) and I had hoped that one of the actually experienced candidates had caught traction rather than the trio of hopey first this or thats.
