Have you heard that there's a Democratic Party debate Sunday? If you haven't, you're not alone.
Once again, the DNC has scheduled a debate at a time to minimize viewership.
FOX News reports:
With Sunday debate, DNC places NFL, 'Downton Abbey' fans in tough spotOnce again, a Democratic debate is being held on the weekend, and this one could have a slimmer audience than usual - coming on the same day as two NFL playoff games, not to mention "Downton Abbey."
The Sunday night debate in South Carolina, hosted by NBC News, is the latest in a series of weekend Democratic bouts. The timing has fueled allegations from Hillary Clinton's rivals that party leaders are working behind the scenes to minimize her exposure.
This Sunday's debate is in a particularly rough slot - forcing NFL fans and period drama lovers to choose between politics and pastimes.
On the same day Clinton, former Maryland Gov. Martin O'Malley and Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders discuss health care reform and the Trans-Pacific Partnership, there are two NFL playoff games, with the second - Pittsburgh Steelers versus the Denver Broncos - likely to finish only just before the debate begins.
This tactic of hiding their debates is fooling no one.

As Ted Cruz put it, a debate between the Bolsheviks and the Mensheviks.
“Untouchables”
One vote here to hear Robert Stack interview Clintoon on gun control.
Toilets need cleaning. If that weren’t the case, of course I’d watch the debate. :(
Amazing game. I wanted them both to win.
That is by design: the DNC are trying to keep Hillary as far away from public venues as possible, while still being able to claim she is actively campaigning.
In a related thread about Chelsea starting to campaign, I posed this:
Chelsea out campaigning for Hillary.
BJ out campaigning for Hillary.
Where’s Hillary?
==
Hillary shows up on a couple of ‘soft’ venues:
(1) A night comedy program and
(2) This Week with George Stephanopoulos who has close ties to the Clintons.
No real campaigning. No townhalls. No coliseums or stadiums.
She will be in the debate (supposedly) tonight. Let us hope Huma has a collar and leash on her so she doesn’t get disoriented and start wandering around the parking lot during one of the breaks.
[Have you heard that there’s a Democratic Party debate]
As opposed to a undemocratic debate?
Thje NBC ads are portraying the hildebeast as younger and more mentally alert than she is. That female has brain damage and the media is seeking to cover it up.
Book: try ALAS BABYLON. YOU WON’t put it down.
I am busy.
I have to watch my bathtub drain and the paint drying in my kitchen.
My guess is that Hillary will soon implode and resign from race, citing “health” issues and family commitments. She is barely limping along at this point. When you have to rely on Lena Dunham, it’s all over but the shouting.
The football game starts at 430 and the debate starts at 9.
No conflict. Downtown abbey is a different story.
I have no interest in either.
The game will be over before the debate starts. Of course that’s still no reason to torment yourself with the debate.
Going to guess that no one posting here is going to watch the debate? Doesn’t matter anyhow, the eventual Dem candidate is not going to be any of the three debating I suspect.
I have a choice of all day long ‘Leverage’ and ‘Blue Bloods’ Marathons to choose from.
And my sock drawer could stand some serious re arrangement!
I’m going to the movie theater and watch Star Wars VII for a second time.
Those certifiably mentally ill will be watching the purported “debates”. Will hiiary klintoon again be wandering aimlessly in the alley during the “debate”?
