The key objects that this political cartoon highlights are the sign "Naughty List Archives" and the hundreds of files inside the archive that are dedicated to Herman Cain. The objects represent that Herman Cain has been a "naughty" person and has had many indiscretions. This cartoon is a satire of the situation regarding Herman Cain.
The cartoonist may be a little biased because he shows an archive full of "naughty" records (Cain may not have been involved in so many indiscretions). He is sharing the facts that are now coming to the light of the public (that Herman Cain has done many "naughty" things).
Over the past couple of weeks, women have been coming out to the media claiming of sexual harassment charges against Herman Cain. Cain's inability to stand up against those charges has made the public weary about his moral backgrounds and his abilities as a possible GOP nominee against President Obama. Recently, a woman named Ginger White has come out saying that she and Cain have had a thirteen year affair. These indiscretions that are now in the public spotlight will test Herman Cain's run for nomination. Most are suggesting that Herman Cain should cut his losses and drop out of the campaign.
The cartoon's goal was to share that there are many indiscretions that the public doesn't know about which will definitely hold Cain back.
