I'm sure DWS and the DNC wouldn't have

tried to do anything to the Sanders campaign if he decided to go outside the debate parameters set.

1. I wish i shared you optimism about that.

from everything i've seen, esp. in light of the data flap, DWS will exploit ANY and ALL opportunities
to cripple Sanders' campaign. This would be handing her just such an opportunity.

I agree a case can be made, that now that there are only 3; and if O'M & Sanders BOTH 'broke
the rules' that Debbie would look exceedingly ridiculous banning them both.. but looking ridiculous
doesn't seemed to bother her one bitl; and hell, she and Hillary could then just say "Oh now, no
more debates at all, since there's only Hillary left" and I'm not sure that would be a net gain for
Sanders either.

It's a close call, I'll give you that.

7. Ha!

Even if by some miracle they didn't we'd never hear the end of it on DU.

"Believe you me that Sanders campaign doesn't play by the rules!"

8. Didn't Sanders just sue the DNC?

I don't think he's too worried about angering them.

LOL.

You guys are a hoot.

[mmonk]

9. Yes, for them breaking their own rule to

kneecap his campaign.

10. Kicking for all those who like repeating

their lies on a daily basis here to try and anger Sanders voters.

11. Sanders and O'Malley

I think that if they scheduled a debate, Hillary would have showed up.

12. Of course Debbie Wasserman Schultz would never, ever do anything like that!1!!

Would she?

13. Kicking this until Hillary Supporters chime in...

14. Hands would have been tied...

If two out of the three on our side would have done it. Additionally, it has been clearly explained many times that there were multiple ways to go about it.

Fact is Sanders is wisely using this to generate funds. He is a politically savvy career politician. He is walking a tight rope trying to continue to promote the image of a revolution among his base while using the party structure at the same time.

Revolutionaries yelling about a major parties debate rules is becoming somewhat comical.
