If you remember Pogo, look up political novelist Ross Thomas. He was a Washington based reporter for most of the 1950s and started writing fiction in the 1960s. 'The Fools In Town Are On Our Side' is about an attempt to clean up a corrupt Southern city by making it so rotten that even the pimps will vote for reform.
