[Uncle Joe]

1. It was quite noticeable to me.

Thanks for the thread, FourScore.

[SCantiGOP]

33. anti-Sanders conspiracy #17,963

And all of them noted exclusively here on DU!

[Segami]

2. Thanks.....The time-overruns for Hillary drove me crazy tonight

[litlbilly]

3. she might have been better off talking alot less but probably not. Bernie crushed it tonight, best

ive ever seen him.

[JDPriestly]

20. I think she was trying to bait him into interrupting her.

She is so obnoxiously tricky.

Really not so likable.

I hate to say that, but she just does not play fair and is arrogant and condescending seeming.

[Bassomar]

21. You might be correct

You might be correct on that. I don't get why she got so much time when she talking to the undocumented mother... it was like 3-4 minutes.

[Cheese Sandwich]

4. Hillary cheats by talking past her time limits, baiting Bernie into interrupting her

[bravenak]

5. OMG

[lovemydog]

22. Truly.

I laugh to keep from buggin' out.

[bravenak]

28. Me too

[ljm2002]

31. Well do you have a different analysis?

This is a very simple analysis and does not depend upon what anyone said or what side they are on. How much time did each candidate have to speak, and how often were each of them interrupted by the moderators? Either Hillary got more time than Bernie, or not. Either Bernie was interrupted more often than Hillary, or not.

If you believe the OP is factually inaccurate you are, of course, welcome to demonstrate that by showing your own analysis.

Somehow I don't think you're up to it.

[kath]

38. Crickets from her.

For 14+ hours. What a surprise!

[jpb33]

6. True

The moderators were rude and disrespectful. They would raise their voice if Bernie spoke just a few seconds past his time. It was an awful performance for the moderators, just plain terrible. They came off as rude and arrogant. They behaved as if the people at home and in the audience was there to see them.

[Frustratedlady]

29. Amen! I thought it was just me who felt that way.

I left the debate after half an hour or so, as I couldn't tolerate the rudeness and arrogance of the moderators. With Bernie, it seemed to be that they were on a "gotcha" search. I thought it was one of the worst debates I'd seen on either side...and, that's goin' some.

[jpb33]

7. Maybe

It would not hurt him if he did a Ted Cruz and put the moderators in their place from time to time. It usually works too.

[6chars]

8. did bernie ask her to "let me speak" this time?

[JDPriestly]

19. I think she said to him, "I'm talking" or something to that effect.

She was allowed to go on and on, and the moderators cut Bernie short all the time.

I noticed the difference right away. It was quite striking if you are a person who relies on hearing more than on vision.

[hopemountain]

24. at one point he did say to the moderators

"i'd like to speak as long as she did" or something to this effect. and ramos replied "okay". lol.

[BreakfastClub]

9. Eh, I could easily claim the opposite and make up some numbers too. nt

[Coincidence]

10. Yep, you would be quickly debunked but you are correct, you could easily make any claim you want.

Apparently you didn't know this, but you can go watch the debate again at anytime, no seriously you could watch it right now if you wanted to. You could have even fact-checked the OP's numbers yourself, just think if you had bothered to do that then you wouldn't have ended up making this idiotic post and embarrassing yourself. Maybe think about it going forward.

[kristopher]

12. You are aware that embarrassment requires a sense of shame?

Not all people have that in all situations.

[arikara]

32. Not if you actually watched the debate and were honest about it

It was obvious that they gave her way more time and kept interrupting Bernie.

Not that it really matters as he won it anyhow.

[AzDar]

11. It was SO obvious... and infuriating.

[6chars]

13. here is the transcript

http://www.nytimes.com/2016/03/10/us/politics/transcript-democratic-presidential-debate.html

I wonder what the ratio of words spoken by each candidate is. Anyone have the skills to figure that out?

[renate]

14. well, I'm going to bed in a few minutes, but

I'd think cutting and pasting the transcript in a Word document, and then highlighting each person's answers, using whatever tool it is these days (I have an old version) to do a word count, and then adding it up would be pretty simple.

I'm certainly not suggesting that you or anybody here do it, because it would be time-consuming, but a journalist who was getting paid to do so would probably find it pretty trivial. If they were interested in doing so, of course.

[silvershadow]

15. Corporate must be feeling the Bern, too...They're trying to put out a fire. nt

[Geronimoe]

16. It likely backfired

The more Hillary talks, the more she sounds like a lawyer/politician.

Hillary is proud of her vote for Tarp II. I wish Bernie would say he voted against it because it was trickle down economics on steroids. That never helps working families A fair amount of the money was invested overseas by the bankers.

[dana_b]

17. yep! She did and they did:

[EmperorHasNoClothes]

27. HAH!

That's perfect.

[JDPriestly]

18. Just what I thought!

[billhicks76]

23. Guess What>>>CNN Burying Debate

The last 2 debates have been removed from CNN OnDemand. Every other show its up in one day and stays for the year. More BS.

[MrJefe]

25. She took more time and it was not to her advantage

More is not always better. There were many instances where I do not think she helped her self by speaking more. She was off tonight, I thought Bernie was much stronger, as usual. Her lies about Bernie are not going over well, IMO. She was right about not being a natural politician though, and whatever advice she is getting does not seem to be helping.

[merrily]

26. No end to the media bs. None!

[beaglelover]

30. Hillary got much tougher questions than Bernie. And she still came out on top!

Hillary will be the D nominee in November.

[white_wolf]

39. And Trump will be president.

Face it, Hillary is a weak candidate and Trump will beat her. I'll vote for her because she'll continue our nation's march toward the right, but Trump will turn that march into a sprint.

[veronique25]

34. french election debates have timers onscreen!

in french election debates, the viewers see a running minute-count on the screen by each candidate

"Mankind born free, yet everywhere in chains."

[WhaTHellsgoingonhere]

35. Some of that's stylistic. Hillary starts talking before she knows which side of an issue she wants

to fall on, forever equivocating. Bernie can actually say "Yes", "No", "I'm for it", and "I'm against it."

[Karma13612]

40. Very true!!! It takes longer to answer when you are trying

To avoid answering, or to defend your unpopular position on something.

[donheld]

36. But Bernie got the standing ovation!

[olddots]

37. whats NPR ?

oh that station from the 70s that had the Fire Sign Theater .......

41. You should see how Sanders is omitted from the latest WaPo - ABC News poll...

The first link is a brief analysis I made of the blackout on Sanders on facebook. You should be able to load this link and look at the comments:

https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=10205854923283268&set=a.1116940294727.2017711.1563580074&type=3&theater

Here is the actual poll location:

http://apps.washingtonpost.com/g/page/politics/washington-post-abc-news-national-poll-march-3-6-2016/1982/

Sanders data is only listed seven times. Clinton data is listed 25 times.

42. ciafront, you should post this in an OP .

It's shocking. Really.

Welcome to DU!!!

[www.ciafront.com]

44. Thank you I shall consider it

I am glad you found it interesting. The marginalization of Sanders is astounding.
