Can't get enough politics? Yearn for the hydra-headed, hyped-up heyday of the primary campaigns? Eric Appleman may have just the fix you need. He's compiled two collections of editorial cartoons, one for each major party, chronicling the battle for each party's nomination.

The two volumes, in large paperback form, are "The Race for the 2008 Republican Nomination" and "The Race for the 2008 Democratic Nomination," both published by Pelican. They include cartoons from around the country, including the drawings of Ted Rall, incoming president of the Association of American Editorial Cartoonists.

When he's not compiling cartoons, Appleman is the force behind Democracy in Action, a citizens guide to the election.
