Summary edit

Description
English: Editorial cartoon shows President Carter watching in dismay as Senator Teddy Kennedy approaches carrying two large blocks of ice labeled "Blame for Cold War" and "Wage-Price Freeze." In January 1980, Kennedy, who was opposing Carter for the presidential nomination, gave a major speech at Georgetown University in which he attacked Carter for not being sufficiently firm with the Communists and for not taking steps to control inflation. "The Iceman Cometh" was a play by Eugene O'Neill about a group of homeless misfits who are temporarily beguiled by a flashy salesman who turns out to be mentally deranged. Many people believed in early 1980 that the charismatic Kennedy had a good chance of defeating Carter who was viewed as incompetent.
