The key object in this cartoon is the deficit reduction plan and the key character is Superman, but he is admitting defeat.

Gorrell is both alluding to Superman and the Congressional Super Committee.

The main issue this is dealing with is the failure of the Super Committee to agree on anything and to get anything done.

The message is that some one else could be better suited to do that "superjob" and it's a huge project that they have infront of them.

His political preference is seemingly neutral of this author.
