45. So those in sports bars will get Leonard Nimoy to give them teleport technology...

to teleport themselves from where they are watching the game to someplace they might watch the debate?

Don't think so! Just like they screwed us Iowa fans who were being forced to choose between the debate in Des Moines versus watching the Hawkeyes set a record in season wins against Minnesota in the ONE game that the DNC could have avoided scheduling against that had its time scheduled months ahead of time. And it wasn't just the football team that was playing that day in Kinnick stadium, but record numbers of college wrestling fans from both Iowa and Oklahoma State were attending a record setting wrestling meet in that stadium earlier in the day too.

If you are talking to Iowa voters, use this example to remind them how DWS as a surrogate to Hillary was trying to keep Iowa fans from tuning in to the Democratic Debate in a similar fashion. Do they want someone that will try to drive people away from the party just to get their own handpicked candidate nominated for president?
