They're the political underdogs with big ambitions. We'll look at the local GOP and talk with the head of the local Republican party about building a base in a city of Democrats. Plus, we get an inside glimpse at the teachers' union and its response to the city's massive education overhaul. Join us for our weekly review of the politics, policies, and personalities of the District of Columbia.
