@BernieSanders on Twitter: "You should be willing to debate anytime, anywhere." - Hillary Clinton in 2008

Except, you know, she already agreed earlier in this very primary cycle to hold more debates that haven't occurred yet, including in April

And one in May as well.

she agreed to the same sentiment earlier in this campaign

Show where in this campaign she agreed to the same unlimited number of campaigns like in '08 (before they realized what a mistake it was).

Instead she chose to renege on her promise for future debates and make them depend on whether her opponent consents to be tone-policed.

"Tone-policed" Well that is a rather specific way of saying that she wants him to stop throwing a temper tantrum because he is not getting his way and losing.

This is especially telling given the fact that statistically attention to the primary doesn't peak in a state until its primary approaches. This is why a high number of debates is important--because people start watching at different times.

10 is high enough (8 so far 2 to come). People will watch the debate when there states primary is closer, buy why demand the debate be in NY when you know she won't go to NY other than to score a few more points. NYs will still be able to watch a debate from anywhere they want and get the info they need.

Hillary knows this. She knew it then, which is why she called for so many debates and chastised her opponent for refusing them

We've gone over this if you are referring to 2008. They all realized it was a mistake after doing it. To many debates with to much else to do was not good. People can change their minds after trying something.

So yeah, we can continue to delve down into "the half that's missing" all you want. It only bodes worse for Hillary, not better.

There is nothing to delve down into. She made a statement in and they tried it. They realized it was a giant mistake and the DNC decided to put a limit to the number of primary debates. The second half that you want to delve into is the fact that they tried it and realized it was a mistake.

There is nothing else to delve in regards to my original comment which was about using her statement from 2008 in 2016 when they already tried it and had already changed their minds realizing it was a mistake.

Also, I would continue this convo and only answered because another redditor was waiting on my response, but the downvote brigade is actually going through and downvoting posts and comments in my history that have nothing to do with this.
