1. Why the heck would a Democratic party sponsor a debate and...

have Wolf Blitzer to moderate??

2. The LA debate should only be for the heavyweight candidates

Four states will have voted by then. At that point the single digit nuisance candidates will have to be asked to leave while the grownups talk policy.

3. I would imagine the Des Moines Register debate will be moved up to between X-mas & New Years

7. I hope so - it's only fair to the candidates and to the voters in Iowa. nt

9. That would be godawful

who wants to hear and/or watch these people on a Holiday week?

Then again, you can rightfully respond, when else? Which points to the total absurdity of the leapfrogging and one-upsmanship that has characterized this nomination process. A Jan.3 caucus that coincides with the Orange Bowl preceded by a debate between Christmas and New Year's...You can't make this stuff up.

11. I bet they do a debate in late December, like Dec. 29

Enough time to have everyone to get the NYE things happening... unless it's January 2...

[BeyondGeography]

12. I'd almost prefer Jan. 2, but all the options suck

Too bad. Then again, screwing up elections is us.
