Five Funny Newt Gingrich Cartoons
This fascinating and fun to draw GOP Primary will continue to Florida, as Newt Gingrich has pulled off the upset and defeated Mitt Romney in the South Carolina Primary.
Newt is nearly a perfect candidate for the nation’s cartoonists. He’s very fun to draw, has enough baggage in his past to fit nearly every visual metaphor, and his harsh rhetoric offers great visuals for cartoonists to take advantage of.
Here are five recent Newt Gingrich cartoons that I thought I’d share. To view all our Newt Gingrich cartoons, click here.

Cruise Ship Yahtzee
The use of a sinking ship as cartooning imagery has been one of the staples of modern political cartooning for years. Nearly every cartoonist has drawn at least one cartoon featuring a ship going down as a metaphor for business, economics or even politics.
When five or more cartoonists draw the game gag, we refer to it as a ‘Cartoon Yahtzee.‘ There is a basic rule of thumb to go by, “if one other guy drew it, he’s a plagiarist; if five other guys drew it, they’re hacks; if a dozen other guys drew it, they are honoring a tradition”.
With the sinking of the Costa Concordia (view our Cruise Ship Catastrophe cartoons), several cartoonists thought the incident reminded them of the current situation with the Euro, and went to their drawing boards unaware some of their cartooning colleagues had the same thought.
