On October 28, 2010, a Denver Post cartoon by Mike Keefe depicts two children at a doorstep during Halloween. They carry pumpkin bags and tell the woman answering the door that no costumes are needed because election campaigns have already scared her enough. A bowl of candy sits nearby and a cat watches from the floor. The image captures the mood of the 2010 midterm elections marked by heavy negative advertising from both parties and the rising Tea Party movement. The cartoon uses the holiday setting to highlight voter fatigue with attack ads.
