Summary	Some of the most incisive comments on these political events, however, have come, not from journalists, but cartoonists. Throughout 1998, cartoonists provided a running commentary on the political twists and turns. A collection of these cartoons was part of the National Museum of Australia exhibition: Bringing the House Down. The exhibition, the third of its kind, ran at Old Parliament House. -- It was a collection of the year's best cartoons, divided into eight sections covering the political gamut.
