We need more, more, more, more DEBATES. Here are some reasons why!

54. The DNC has already decided who the nominee will be, now they want to keep her hidden

They don't want her to be put in any situation where she can "misspeak", lie, put her foot in her mouth or otherwise commit one of the verbal faux pas to which she is prone.

So their plan is to limit her exposure to the voting public to situations in which she can be kept under control or scripted appearances in which no extemporaneous speaking is allowed.

So get ready for tons of schmaltzy maudlin campaign ads featuring her sainted grandma, her beloved fourth grade teacher, and for all I know, her pet goldfish. Get ready for "listening tours" where she pretends to pay attention to voters concerns and then pontificates about bold solutions to them. You might even see a totally rehearsed Q&A session where planted stooges get up and ask "incisive" questions that were prepared for them by her staff. But what you'll never see is her in an unrehearsed, unstaged, genuine situation where somebody gets to hit her with a question she didn't already know the answer to.

It's all smoke and mirrors and if we never get to see her having to be real, we have to accept that the manufactured, stage managed, cardboard cutout is actually the real thing. Or at least she hopes we do,
