2016 Postmortem
Related: About this forumWanna know a secret?
The Dems are having a debate, but shhhh don't tell anyone. It's going to be on Saturday night at 9 or something, and no one knows what channel (maybe CBS or BSC or something) . It's like Democratic Fight Club.
Thanks Deb, I'm sure no one will notice it.

Mr Prosser: But, Mr Dent, the plans have been available in the local planning office for the last nine months.
Arthur: Oh yes, well as soon as I heard I went straight round to see them, yesterday afternoon. You hadnt exactly gone out of your way to call attention to them had you? I mean like actually telling anybody or anything.
Mr Prosser: But the plans were on display
Arthur: On display? I eventually had to go down to the cellar to find them.
Mr Prosser: Thats the display department.
Arthur: With a torch.
Mr Prosser: The lights had probably gone out.
Arthur: So had the stairs.
Mr Prosser: But look, you found the notice, didnt you?
Arthur: Yes yes I did. It was on display at the bottom of a locked filing cabinet stuck in a disused lavatory with a sign on the door saying beware of the leopard.

Democratic Debate?
CBS will feature live, multi-platform coverage of the Democratic Debate on Saturday, Nov. 14, from 9-11pm ET. The debate between candidates Hillary Clinton, Bernie Sanders and Martin OMalley will take place at Drake University in Des Moines, Iowa. This marks the first time this campaign season that a debate will air on a broadcast network. This is the second debate among the Democratic candidates for the 2016 presidential nomination.

So whatever channel CBS broadcasts on, that is the one.

In fact, I know of three different watch parties.
And this is the first debate not really behind the cable paywall... Not that anyone cares?

is easier than taking time from the weekend to watch for some.

(28,749 posts)11. Sure seems like...
I'll be canvassing for 4 hours, and then heading to a debate watch party and then Sunday I am also volunteering for the campaign.
That's my weekend.

just in case something unexpected comes up that would prevent me from watching.
