In this cartoon the idea of hypocrisy within the republican party with moral standards is represented by vault jumping. The idea of the setting the bar as literally setting a bar of moral standards at different height and living up to the parties expectations. The democrats, constantly being criticized for setting low moral standards yet the republicans set the bar high and fail to meet them. The idea expressed that democrats are constantly criticized for moral values by republicans is apparent. This is an issue with the republican GOP race, finding a candidate willing and able to contend with Obama and some of the issues that will become of high importance for both parties is the issues of moral values.
