Syracuse lost. Bring on the Monday debate???

[Funtatlaguy]

Syracuse just lost to UNC in the semifinals of the NCAA Final Four.
The championship game will be Monday night between UNC and Villanova.

So, with no New York team in the game Monday, should Hillary and Bernie debate then?

1. So you don't think people will watch the game? You don't know avid sports fans.

[Funtatlaguy]

2. Yes, some will.

However, the excuse not to have the debate because a school based in New York might be playing is now gone.

6. It is ridiculous to schedule a debate opposite the NCAA championship game

Unless we are following the DNC/HRC strategy of minimizing the number of people who watch the debate.

7. It's not the school being based in NY that's the issue

The issue is that the Clinton camp deliberately picked a date they knew would have as many people not watching as possible, due to the overwhelming popularity of the NCAA Final Four.

Somehow, the Republicans manage to set up debates that are not on dates that conflict with other major events. What exactly is the problem in this party with doing that, other than the obvious motive to suppress Sanders and the ideas he espouses?

3. Here's a hint; whatever date you pick, most viewers will watch something else.

5. Not live TV events. Outside of news and sports, TV programs are pre-recorded and broadcast later.

Did you know that?

8. I actually agree with you. No reason now to delay. nt
