It's "Suiting Up" by Mark Ulriksen.
Great style and substance. We looked at this one and talked about it for 15 minutes.
Here's Amy Davidson's article about the cover and about all the old covers depicting Hillary Clinton. (You see her way in the back in the window to the door of the men's locker room in the new one.)
UPDATE: October 12, 2016 — notice who's not there at all: Donald Trump — who would proceed to win the GOP nomination and to get in trouble for "locker room" talk.

Or is that Carly Fiorina peaking into the locker room?
Where are Carly and Ben Carson?
Where are Carly and Ben Carson? They don't fit the narrative?
Eh, Jeb looks like every insurance salesman Rotarian schlub in flyover.
GOP voters should relate.
The subliminal message is that Hillary doesn't belong in the locker room. And with her track record of corruption and mendacity the grafter indeed doesn't belong in the field.
That Giuliani cover is kind of despicable, isn't it? It may be a few years after the Central Park jogger case, but what are you trying to convey there if not the usual Hillary bullshit that any kind of opposition to her or not giving her what she wants is basically a violent crime against women?
Fabi beat me to it - where's Carly? She's turning out to be the best candidate qua candidate of the bunch.
That's what I thought too.
Interesting. At first glance, I misread Jeb Bush as Karl Rove and Scott Walker as Paul Ryan. And Mike Huckabee as Bob Dole.
Not at all sure what to make of that.
Also, interesting that you read this as a men's locker room. With the red carpeting, wood panelling, and leather ottomans I was reading it as some sort of hoity-toity old-fashioned men's club with "No Women Allowed" signs.
Sends a bit of a different message if Hillary is banging on the door of the men's locker room, trying to get in.
Ann,
Please don't assume that we all subscribe to the New Yorker. I don't, so I can't get past their paywall as you can.
It is not an accident that the only candidates shown are the white males.
Thanks Fabi I couldn't find Carly. But where is Ben Carson?
And what's going on with Rand Paul's left foot?
@Fabi, Shhhh! We are creating a narrative here! See how it is a golf club locker room! No women allowed at the he-man girls hater club!
Thanks Fabi I couldn't find Carly. But where is Ben Carson?
And what's going on with Rand Paul's left foot?
Interesting that they left Fiorina and Carson out. Can't imagine why...
I love Carly in a portrait on the wall of the Men's locker room she cannot enter.
They made Ted Cruz look almost like a young Bill Murray!
Umm, I guess the white socks and green shorts on Walker are symbolic of the hick newbie from Wisconsin?
It'd be better if they had Hillary doing the laundry. Only the laundry is cash funneled through her foundation and LLC.
I would put Fiorina in there ahead of Christie. Unless he does some real magic, he doesn't have a shot. Does he get a second act?
Ben Carson is legit as well
But of course the picture heading the CNN article is not Carson, it's Huckabee in a stereotypical Elmer Gantry pose, to scare the children and advance the narrative. Be cool if they kept one conservative around to tip them off when they are going full retard, but that would be "diversity" and we can't have that!
Sometimes I think it's not so much that they are trying to advance a narrative as that they are blind to it.
I check to see if the article is behind the wall, using a secod browser where I'm not signed in. This looked like you could get to it free as long as you weren't past your monthly allotment, in which case, you could just use private browsing.
Ted Cruz is the only one who is fully dressed.
So that's Fiorina not allowed in the locker room, and Carson, being black, is not even allowed in the building.
I guess 'No Blacks' is also part of the narrative, Tim!
Seven? Isn't that Bobby Jindal with his back to us?

Fiorina and Carson are the two candidates the Left most wishes would go away. They represent real challenges to their identity politics strategy.
So no, Althouse, I don't think it's a great cover; I think it's the kind of propaganda that you buy into though.
Didn't you once doubt whether Ben Carson was able speechwriter?
Haven't you all but ignored Carly Fiorina's message, choosing instead to focus on her spouse?

"Ted Cruz is the only one who is fully dressed."
Hillary! Put your pantsuit on, you naughty girl!
Hillary peeps.
Those are Ronald Reagan's boots--RR--apparently, the point is--who is going to fill them.
That's Carly in the back looking through the window pane in the locker room door.
Those are Rick Perry's boots. They have a map of Texas and RP on them. But why are they next to Rubio and his slippers.
Whose the faggot on the phone? Rubio? Are they trying to say he is gay?
I love the New Yorker. It is the only magazine I still get.
Do you know this winter, during the blizzards, my buildings New Yorkers were thrown in a snow pile one time?
The loft building was furious. Over 40 New Yorkers scattered in snow and shit...totally deva.
We complained and received free New Yorker tote bags-they are adorbs. Great for fresh fruit from Whole Foods and Yoga gear. I wear mine on my right shoulder hanging down crossing my body and landing on my firm left thigh.
They missed a chance at adding the token black (who will never win) as the towel boy.
Please don't show a picture of Hillary suiting up. Please?
Great cover - meaningless article
Every locker room I've been in in the last few years has prohibited cell phones. (Remember that every phone is also a camera.)
Clint - banging Hillary on the door? Thanks for the visual!!
Titus: "They missed a chance at adding the token black (who will never win) as the towel boy."
So now it IS okay for white boys from whitey-flyover land to refer to distinguished black neuro-surgeons as "boy"?
It's getting very hard to keep up with the ever changing and nonsensical lefty "rules".
Why would anyone pay $8 for that?
I agree with Bill from Texas in that they made Rubio look totally gay in the stereotypical sense. One can almost hear the alveolar click.
I wondered why they did that until I remembered that Rubio is the one they fear the most.
Please Carson is the token black who will never win. He is like chocolate ice cream who is a fave one week. But he will have a lucrative future selling books and be a fake news corespondent. What happened to Cain and Allen west they are no longer relevant.
@Chickelit,I appreciate the agreement and all but shit, could you speak English? I didn't even understand the definition of "alveolar". Some of us are just hillbilly ditchdiggers.
I fear Rubio the most. He really what the bed with his immigration plan. He's just another Tea parties to get elected and a rino in office. If we're going that direction, I want a Bush/ Clinton election so everyone gets their nose rubbed in the shit candidates. We might as well be honest that the establishment is going to stew over everyone but the big bankers and lick spittle.

Indeed, Carson may not win this time, but, like Fiorina, he's an important candidate because he's an alternative political role model for a cohort mired and crippled by Democratic Party identity politics. The Obamites despise him because he's the "wrong" kind of African American. I also like that he makes gays like you say bigoted things--that's win/win because the public hears these things.
Titus: "Please Carson is the token black who will never win."
Is that why you called him "boy"?
ken in tx asked...
But why are they next to Rubio and his slippers.
Rubio slippers says Judy Garland to me. What does Judy Garland say to you?
I don't remember it, but the Giuliani mugging Hillary is disturbing (I remember my furious work out the next morning of that Election Day) . On it's own, disturbing. The reality is that she was the carpet bagger (never lived as a citizen here, but she bought a house so it's RFK all over again) and yet he's the mugger of Hillary? I hate this state. The only thing good about the New Yorker is Emily Nussbaum and one or 2 other articles a year.
Wow, $8 newsstand price for a single issue. Seriously?
You can subscribe for something like a dollar a week. If you subscribe, you have access to the whole, searchable website, with all the old articles (and cartoons). Great!
As for buying a newstand copy for $8. It's probably a better buy than the novel you might pick up, say at an airport. Buy it sometime and just read all the articles. I listen to the audio version every week (which isn't all the articles, but their selection of 5 or 6 things) and I love the array of things that I would not have picked out for myself, such as, for example, this one about extreme covers.
Damn you, autocorrect. Extreme cavers.
We can forgive Titus for believing everything he reads in the New Yorker, it makes him feel so good and superior, and that is worth any amount of money. Kings had courts full of flatterers to fulfill this purpose at great cost. He just pays for a little magazine with high production values that explains to him not only that he is a better person than the rest of us, but that what many would find as hateful bigotry for the rest of the country is really a further refined manifestation of a superior sensibility. Who can put a price on that?
What's overlooked is the overt sexism. Men must bare all to avoid the appearance of the "old boys club."
Reverse the image and the men are perverts, a la "Porky's."
Yet even Catherine the Great wouldn't risk her throne to achieve freedom for the serfs. Elizabeth wouldn't yield power to Mary. Cleopatra killed her siblings.
But vote vagina. Because progress.
O yippee....another one......
Santorum poised to join 2016 field
J2: maybe they put 1 big foot on Rand because you know what they say about men with big feet, right? He's got (is) a big dick.
Just a thought.
If you look closely at Scott Walker's sock there is a "k" on it. I am assuming that is because they think he is the Koch Brothers bought and paid for candidate. And we all know how evil those Koch Brothers are!
Is Chris Christie using the 2 bunny ears method of tying his shoes? Is there a message in that somewhere? Because he is truly not a soft and cuddly bunny!
One more: see how Jeb is holding a purple tie?
The "k" could be for Kohl's on Walker's sock.
Great drawing. Fiorina would have ruined it though.
BTW, I know lots of cave divers. Most live. I've been diving in a cave. It's not that interesting to me. Ironically, the late Sheck Exley, a true pioneer in the sport mentioned in the article, didn't die in a cave.
Well, count me as one who is not a fan of THE NEW YORKER, it's basically propaganda for the Dem party. Notice the theme of the pic, all white male repub VS the "woman" dem heroically trying to join the all boys club. GIVE ME A BREAK! The entire tone & narrative is false (Fiorina & Carson) are conveniently left out, I am a bit shocked AA fell for this crapola.
I've been a (Republican) subscriber to The New Yorker for about thirty-five years.
The New Yorker used to be a scrupulously well-edited publication, featuring some of the most interesting and wide-ranging writing in any large publication anywhere in the world. Being located in Manhattan and catering to an upscale and highly educated audience, in had a bit of a liberal tilt to it, but always/only in pursuit of elevating discussions of art/history/politics/technology/etc.
Over the last decade, and most particularly under current editor David Remnick, the magazine has been transformed. Sure, there is still some good-quality writing for writing's sake, and some beautiful writing about culture.
But the overall atmosphere has changed. The New Yorker is not merely liberal; it is virulently partisan, and pointedly partisan in its favoritism of Barack Obama. The magazine seems to carry a massive grudge versus all Republicans, and the net effect is that the publication is dumber than it has ever been in my lifetime.
The departure of David Remnick will be a glorious day for The New Yorker. They cannot possibly do worse, and cannot possibly find anyone who will operate as a nastier partisan, than David Remnick.

I think she fell for it because she--like The New Yorker---doesn't believe that Carson and Fiorina could be serious candidates; they are the "wrong" kind of women and minorities to represent.

When anyone says something like that, I feel the miscreants have been dared to prove the statement wrong.
I am just about certain that it will be proven wrong.
I too was amused you failed to notice the lack of real diversity in the republican field.
