So Hillary has a safe way past the Bernie supporters into the castle? And they get to wallow complacently in the muck hoisting slogans in the air while she proceeds unimpeded? I'm pretty sure that's not what the cartoonist intended, but that's why you have to watch your visual metaphors.

Maybe if the croc was biting the train of her robe the intended pro-Bern message would be properly communicated. On the other hand, maybe this is what the cartoonist intended, and the drawbridge should have been labeled Super Tuesday ...

But if you want to talk about faulty, what's an alligator doing in a northern-European-style castle?
