HRC Rooom. I think 6 debates will be fine.


HILLARY CLINTON ROOM POST


I think that our candidates can get their message out in 6 debates and I think Hillary will shine in them all.

I think so called campaign operatives complaining about this need to chill.

I think that six debates should be sufficient given that the Democrats really only have five real candidates-i.e, HRC, Bernie Sanders, O'Malley, Jim Webb and Lincoln Chafee. The RNC is limiting itself to 9 debates for 22 real candidates. If we did the same ratio of candidates to debates, then the Democrats only need 2 debates.

Six is plenty unless you are an extreme long shot like O'Malley. I note that Bernie himself is not complaining right now

They love these debates, not for anything they add to the political discourse, but for ratings. We don't need our eventual nominee all beat up & bloodied just to satisfy the bloodlust of her opponents.

We don't want a democratic clown car circus like the republicans have.

3/4 of those grifters are just there for the free nationwide publicity and to sell their latest screed/book.
