Candidates, like cat burglars, step more carefully when they are carrying a loaded gun. So when South Dakota's Republican Senate candidate John Thune challenges Tim Johnson for opposing missile defense, the TV ad shows an image of Saddam Hussein. "Is this a question of patriotism?" the ad asks. "No. It's a question of judgment." It's an artful but nervy charge to level at Johnson, who actually supports the use of force against Iraq and whose son Brooks is the only congressional son to serve in Afghanistan.

...sometimes an arm or a piece of clothing, poking out over the edge. While not difficult in itself, the technique points to Deitch's fundamental challenge to audiences: the act of transgression. The depiction of Waldo typifies Deitch's disturbing art. Though he looks much like Felix the Cat, with big round eyes and little white gloves, he also sports "cute" male genitalia.
