The cartoonist tries to figure out what's funny about the Republican candidates

i guess it's only funny insofar as any of us find bigotry, deliberate ignorance, pandering, denial, delusion and lying funny...

equally not funny is that they are being paid attention to as if they had anything worthwhile to say...

and to think that one of them - most likely the pathetic one-percenter from massachusetts - will be our next president...

and, even if the incumbent is re-elected, we'll simply have to continue dealing with this...
