Mary Lucia's dog, Smudge, is perfect for a poster with the appropriate caption. And it's become a News Cut tradition -- two makes it a tradition -- to hold the caption contest summarizing the various campaigns.
A favorite from two years ago:
"Why can't I vote? All those dogs in Chicago can..."The rules are simple. Make us laugh.

If Ole Savior doesn't win THIS time, i'm just going to cry!
Is social security going to run out by my retirement age in dog years?
I vote for a candidate I can see eye to eye with.
You wouldn't stomp on a head this cute, would you?
Seriously? You believe that crazy talk? Though, as a dog, I'll admit I can smell bull---- better than most.
Glen Bark makes me sad.
I just voted for Lizard People.
"Sigh, voting between the two major parties is like choosing between a bath and trip to the vet."
No. More. Robo calls!
You're taxing dog treats to pay for cat toys?
Why can't I vote again? This year I hear even the dead dogs in Chicago get to vote.
No matter how hard I try, I can't seem to find where the left and right meet...
Smudge - a dog of a candidate who is really a dog.
I'm so bored with the U.S.A.!
*sniff* *sniff*
That smell?
That wasn't me...it was "Jim, The Election Guy."
