Example: Using a custom cache object
************************************

Redis is a good option for a cache that can be shared between processes.

::

    >>> from redis import StrictRedis
    >>> from congress import Congress
    >>> db = StrictRedis()
    >>> congress = Congress(API_KEY, cache=db)
    >>> senate = congress.members.filter('senate') # hits the API, caching the result
    >>> senate = congress.members.filter('senate') # uses the cache
