2016 Postmortem
Related: About this forumFor EVERY One of these GOP Debates. The GOP & Their Candidates get 90% of 2-3 Days News Cycles.
.. of totally FREE advertising. It is absolutely dumbfounding to me that the Democratic Party
puts up with this shit. Do we WANT to lose?
Hillary people talk about how damned important it is to "KEEP THE GOP OUT of the White House in 2016!!!!!!";
so riddle me this: why is the DNC Darling candidate, Hillary Clinton, not standing up and saying "CUT IT OUT!"
to the DNC's throttle-hold on the Democratic Debate schedule, down to only 6 poorly scheduled (on weekends,
holidays, etc.) paltry debates?
I know Hillary said she "wouldn't object to more debates", or some such fluff; but that's a damn far cry from
coming into solidarity with Bernie and O'Malley and DEMANDING more debates, or get rid of DWS, so she
stops this insane obstructionism on this issue.
Sorry, but every time the GOP gets all this 100% free airtime it totally pisses me off all over again, so I had
to get this off my chest.

Anyways...there are only 3 candidates left.
5 debates is more than enough IMO.

(18,421 posts)Clearly it is an issue that needs to be discussed. Shouldn't we have a debate led by a person of color, involving issues relating to PoC?

(19,326 posts)Yet the number of hours of FREE TV time, to discuss, debate, and present those issues before voters,
from a Democratic perspective, in a coherent way is heavily tilted to favor the GOP, not Democrats.
