So who’s going to watch Sunday Dem Debate instead of NFL Playoffs?

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 spot

Once 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.

you’re a smart guy. you read my mind.

should be called the ClintonCratic party :)

though i dont want that psychotic pervert sanders to get any more exposure.

hillary will lose the generals. but sanders will have armies of young and spoiled and stupid college kids working day and night for him.

was a movie about the USSR yesterday, and one ham and a box of tissues were considered quite lavish!!

generation of dolts!

A debate between these three is of no concequence. They are all evil SOBs striving for the destruction of America.

If Debbie Wasserman Schultz could have booked a Democratic presidential debate opposite the Super Bowl, she would have. She knows the less people see or hear from Hillary, the better for Hillary.

We are talking NFL play offs vs lying dems...NFL wins. And I don’t even control the TV remote and concur with my sports nut husband on this. I’ve a new book to read. Even If we didn’t watch sports, Netflix has a couple of movies to watch if need be.

Not even a GOP debate would interfere with the NFL on Sunday. Nor the SOTU.

“The King of Devils Island” ( Netflix) - highly recommend it. Also, “The Iceman”

Both the DNC & the NFL are criminal elements. Therefore I will spend the time watching the ice form in the puddles on my street.

Why would Schumer praise Trump? Something unseemly is going on with this NYC issue.

Is there a quid pro quo with the Dems?

As a faithful believer in Trump, 2nd Cruz.

Playoffs? It’s over and the Cardinals won the best game ever played. The Super Bowl will be anti climatic after that game last night
