The only thing left afloat, and that may drift away

This cartoon illustrates the Democratic Party's lack of issues in future elections. The Democratic donkey holds on to a mast labeled "Wreck of Democratic Issues" and views a floating key marked "Wet Issue. May Be Endorsed by G.O.P. in 1932." The donkey speculates, "I wonder if it would hold me up?" In the far background is the U.S. Capitol.
