Answer:

C. depict an analogy between a candidate who is ineffective and a duck on crutches by the edge of a pond

Step-by-step explanation:

As the term says it, a lame duck is a politician that wasn´t re-elected but remains in office while wating for the next politician elected to be sworn in, as this happens he can´t actually do anything since he wouldn´t be able to carry out the bill that he could promote or continue his work, as he wasn´t ineffective and wasn´t re-elected he just has time to burn before he es thrown out.
