Now that the 2020 campaign is over, Anna speaks with Parker Poling, the
executive director of the National Republican Congressional Committee,
which made substantial gains this year. Parker's job is a big
responsibility — working with hundreds of campaigns, candidates, members
of congress, donors and campaign staffers as the clock ticks down to
election day. But Parker herself seems to take it all in stride. She
talks about the wisdom she's learned over the years that allows her to
do that — and the importance of being kind to yourself along the way.
