"MANCHESTER, New Hampshire — The Democratic National Committee has agreed to sponsor four more Democratic debates, beginning with the MSNBC debate on Thursday moderated by Chuck Todd and Rachel Maddow in New Hampshire.

Both Hillary Clinton and Bernie Sanders have agreed to the schedule, which also adds a debate in Flint, Michigan on March 6, and then two more debates in April and May with details to come.

“Our Democratic candidates have asked the DNC to sanction and manage additional debates in our primary schedule,” DNC Chair Rep. Debbie Wasserman Schultz said. “We look forward to seeing them continuing to share Democrats’ vision for the country.”

1. I'm looking forward to these...

[slipslidingaway]

2. Me too, thinking early May would be good. nt

3. So am I, but forget it

Bernie has probably not "toned down" enough
for her, meaning that he cannot talk issues or facts. (sarc)

4. No doubt more excuses will be needed and more stalling, but she did agree. nt

5. Why do you hate Bernie Sanders?

Why set him up for another humiliating trouncing and Hillary for another bump in the polls?

6. Because he's using his position to push important issues

Without him in the race Hillary would still be talking about terrorism and nothing else. Sanders has forced a much wider conversation onto her.

Another debate is good for us all, regardless of your opinions.

10. I Guess You "Trust" Hillary On Social Security Then... After That Triple String of Obfuscatory...

NON-responses that percolated from her lips?

11. Cause I want to hear about free public college and universal health care

Those two issues, along with campaign finance reform are important issues to me

7. i don't think there will be anymore

8. The media isn't going to help enable the "When's the next debate" narrative again. Not when Sanders

is now even further removed from contention than he was before the whole New York theatrics. Sanders starts puling about this again and he'll be laughed out of the room this time.

9. Clinton tried to renege on her promise for the April debate, if Sanders is in until June, hopefully

she will not try and make excuses again.

[winter is coming]

12. I don't think she'll want to risk another one.

That video of her standing there, waiting to give her closing while the audience chanted "Bernie!" is probably not something she wants to repeat.

13. As long as Sanders is in, I hope she does not try and weasel out of it again ...

yes that was a bad moment for her, but she has a lot of money and power behind her to soften the blow.
