We love political cartoons, and here’s a recent creation by Bill Mitchell, a former newspaper cartoonist who’s long since abandoned print media for the online world (gotta love animated GIFs), and who shares his efforts with CNN.

Here’s his take on the “red phone” or “3 a.m.” ad run by Hillary Clinton ahead of the Ohio and Texas primaries that caused such a stir. Playing on our worst fears, Clinton implied that you want her, not Barack Obama, answering that phone!

Well, Mitchell says it’s not an international crisis likely to make that phone ring, but rather a gaffe by Michelle Obama or an, um… “incident” with Bill Clinton.

Whose red phone do you think is ringing at 3 a.m.?
