The Wrong Lizard
Last April, “The Wrong Lizard,” was posted on a blog called "Thoughts of a Regular Guy."
Here’s the beginning, but I would encourage you to read the application to Illinois politics.

The Wrong Lizard
In his science fiction spoof, So Long And Thanks For All The Fish, Douglas Adams described an alien planet as a democracy in which the people are ruled by lizards.
"The lizards rule the people, and the people hate the lizards," we are told.
The hero asks why, if it's a democracy, and if the people really hate the lizards, they don't simply vote them out of office.
It's explained to him that the people believe that, if they don't vote for a lizard, then the wrong lizard will get in.

Lizards found at the Shedd Aquarium, which probably gets state grants.

Funny one Cal.
But just for the record, how many times did you vote for Lee Daniels for Speaker?
Every time Mike Madigan ran for Speaker, but read the linked post. It is more to the point than your question suggests.
