| Description | Cartoon shows the Democratic donkey, shivering in the snow in a patched coat, looking at a billboard reading "Coming! The Great Santa Claus" and showing the GOP elephant as Santa Claus carrying a large bag labeled "Jobs." With the caption, probably refers to the 1952 presidential election when the Republicans captured the presidency and both houses of Congress after 20 years of Democratic rule. The Republicans expected to replace Democratic appointees with their own supporters. |
