Governor Paterson calls NY lawmakers Bloodsuckers...Insulting many.

Hi everyone,

I'll be away from my drawing board until January 2nd. Time to recharge the creative batteries and spend some sweet quality time with my amazing wife and children.

Next year will be dominated by the presidential campaigns...I can't wait!

Along with my regular daily editorial cartoons, I will be creating 12 more animations in 2008 starting with a new one in mid January after Iowa and New Hampshire.

For now, I'd like to close out 2007 by thanking all of you for visiting my blog. Since it started in the middle of November, over 9 million people have stopped in for a look and to leave some thought-provoking and often hillarious comments. Thank you so much!!!

For the next 10 days I'll be posting some of my favorites from 2007.

Enjoy and Best Wishes to all-----Walt
