quote:

On Friday night, Rachel Maddow will sit down on stage at Winthrop University with the Democratic presidential candidates.

What’s billed as “First in the South Presidential Forum” will bring Hillary Clinton, Bernie Sanders and Martin O’Malley to the school’s Byrnes Auditorium.

The event will bring a national spotlight to Rock Hill, where a special edition of “Hardball with Chris Matthews” will broadcast from campus Friday night and where Maddow will broadcast her own own MSNBC show live on Thursday night.

Maddow loves Bernie, so this should be good.

What's the difference between a forum and a debate?

Q: Tell me about Friday’s format.

A: It’s not a debate. Both the Republican and Democratic parties made decisions this year that they would pick a specific number of debates and require that the candidates would only participate in those. … And that means I am not allowed to put these candidates on the stage at the same time. I have to talk to them sequentially, one on one.

This is good news for Bernie, his message is better suited for this format.

I'm still wondering why this is happening at Winthrop. I mean, it's a pretty good school and Rock Hill's a nice little town, and I enjoy being here, but I just don't understand why they would chose to have it happen here and not somewhere in Columbia or Charleston.

She wouldn't and nothing lasting, which is why it'll be a boring press conference.

So basically you just want drama and some bloodletting for base entertainment rather than discussion of policy

I mean, as much as the GOP debates represent the platonic ideal of entertainment not everyone can have a Trump or ¡Jeb!

I've long been fascinated with how the alt-right develops elaborate and obscure dog whistles to try to communicate their meaning without having to say it out loud
Stepan Andreyevich Bandera being the most prominent example of that
I thought this was a small concession from the DNC to people who wanted more debates.
