It's an interesting prospect to contemplate. Now that companies have no limit on political contributions and can contribute until election day, will we one day see branded campaigns?

Bill Green suggested it on his blog and we ran with it on the show this week. And though the consensus was largely that it couldn't happen, we've been wrong before.

It's a thought-provoking discussion you're sure to want to hear.
