Will anyone watch the Democratic debate this weekend?
Boston Globe ^ | 1/16/16 | James Pindell

Sunday night's presidential debate should be the most closely watched meeting of the party's candidates this year. But once again, thanks to the Democratic National Committee"s schedule, debate viewership will not be even close to what it could have been.

**SNIP**

But not only will this debate air at 9 p.m. on Sunday, in the middle of a three day weekend, but it will also run during National Football League playoff games and - dare we say - a new episode of PBS's popular series, "Downton Abbey."

Don't know what to say. The NFL playoff game between the Steelers and Broncos should be over by around 8pm-ish. Democratic ratings are expected to suck that badly? Gotta blame it on something else, I guess. BTW, has Hillary been indicted yet?

And who, exactly, gets a three day weekend?

Short answer? NO!

Watching Hillary is about as fun as watching paint dry.

I gave up torturing myself years ago.

Only if Al Gore suddenly announced and was able to make the debate...I guess

Will Democrats watch it? I doubt it. They don’t want to see their candidates make fools of themselves.
