and Bill Curry says that it wasn't the DNC that decided to have the original few debates on weekends/the day after Thanksgiving, etc. That it was DWS and Hillary alone who decided these things. I thought that it was definitely DWS but that others BESIDES Hillary who would make these kind of decisions.

I tried to put on my shocked face and it just won't do it.

Of course they are in cahoots. We know this just from what they say to defend themselves on the issue. We know because what they say is contradictory. They say things like we want maximum exposure, while having the debates on at a time when everyone knows that will not happen. They say its the networks schedule, yet somehow the networks manage to give as much time to Republicans as they ask for. I am pretty sure they are obligated to cover Democratic debates in equal numbers if requested. If not I fail to see how a network isn't going to vie to cover the debates when they are cheap and bring in millions of viewers.

Oh, I got a little shock. I am shocked this information came out in a tweet and who ever let it out hasn't gotten any fall out over it yet.

Bernie has been awesome in the debates and Hillary puts people to sleep with long rambling non-answers.
