Simon was last on Quinn's list of possible running mates, and understandably so.
A law professor at Southern Illinois University, Simon previously served in the Carbondale city council, but was unsuccessful in a run for mayor of the college town.
Let that sink in for a minute.
Here is a woman who still goes by her famous father's surname, yet she could not win a local election downstate.
But she plays banjo and bassoon in the band Loose Gravel, which, as I wrote yesterday, performs the song "Pope Knop," which is about the Barbie-underwear garbed first female pope, a little girl "who loves to dance around when she's half bare" and who "knows her holy water from Mountain Dew."
