Madigan’s vaunted “Ground Game” crew sends a staffer to work a local race.
Comment by mcb Thursday, Aug 7, 14 @ 2:57 pm
If this staffer disappoints him, Madigan can choke him with the dark side of the force.

Help me Obi Wan-Kenobi. You’re my only hope!

After polling showed Speaker Madigan’s favorable/unfavorable ratings upside down in the 84th District, he came to visit Rep. Kifowit in this disguise.

Help me, Obi-Wan Kenobi; you’re my only hope.

One is from outer space and the other is a guy in a costume.
Comment by Guy who whispers "tree"... Thursday, Aug 7, 14 @ 3:34 pm
One is part of a diabolical Empire that rules with an iron fist…with a leader whose genius is fueled by controlling all around him…with The Force… and the other is a person dressed in a Star Wars costume.
Comment by Oswego Willy Thursday, Aug 7, 14 @ 3:34 pm

===OW, is that you?===
Nah, I’m usually Chewbacca, or an ewok…
Plus my Stormtrooper costume is at the cleaners…

One is a clone of a person who is known for collecting bounties, settling scores, and ruthlessness. A person feared for tracking down the most elusive targets, and bringing them down for the right price, at the right time.
The other is a costumed constituent.

Another run in with Regional Governor Quinn’s security detail hits makes news. Things were so much simpler when these guys just mowed Regional Governor Edgar’s yard…before the Rebellion.

Dem house staff forgets to change after a meeting with Emperor MJM and attending an event with the feeble minded representatives used to hide the Emperor’s true control of the State/Empire.
He is later sent to southern illinois to work on campaigns never to be heard from again for his failure.

Flip/Mitt Rauner rental field staff stumped in Aurora. Whitey Rauner announces retirement after meeting very talented Rep Kifowit.

After a Star Wars photo-bomb was blamed for almost hurting her re-election, in the following GA, Ms. Kifowit filed HB 1978 banning any storm trooper masks with a lecherous, gray grin.

For the first time in history, the State Fair judges declared the “Creepiest Eyes Contest” a draw.

Continuing her reliance on 70’s & 80’s icons, Sheila Simon is seen with Rep. Stephanie Kifowit explaining to her why she would make the best candidate for Attorney General….I mean Lt. Gov….I mean Treasurer.
Comment by OurMagician Thursday, Aug 7, 14 @ 4:22 pm
She’s my Rep. and I’m afraid everything I want to say about this pic would get me banned for life.

Rick Moranis was right. It’s too dang hard to breathe in one of these helmets.

Not enough pull to get Vader to the block party.
Should have asked Madigan.

One is a faceless character, no different than the next, in an ongoing story..,and is used as a pawn, by a leader far more shrewd and knowledgeable.
The other is a person dressed as a Stormtrooper
Comment by Oswego Willy Thursday, Aug 7, 14 @ 5:22 pm
OW for the win.
Comment by Big Muddy Thursday, Aug 7, 14 @ 5:33 pm
I guess Darth Vader was busy, so generic stormtrooper will have to do.
