This week, we explore political donation - who should you give to if your goal is to maximise progressive power? Chatting with Friend of the Pod and Chair of the Foreign Policy for America group Simon Clark, we explore the power of small donors, the role of different party and outside organisations in building a winning coalition, and how to figure out if your preferred candidate will spend your money well. We also cover Cal Cunningham's chances to pick up a Senate seat in North Carolina, and of course we play the Gut Check Game, testing our reactions to some of this week's headlines.
