Maybe a stupid question, but I'm watching the debate via live stream with a friend tonight but she won't get here until 7PT. Is it possible to pause the live stream when it starts and continue it after an hour so we don't miss anything?

That'll depend on the streaming service you use, the Youtube stream should be the most reliable to do that with.

Cool. I plug my ps4 directly with ethernet so if I start the YouTube stream and pause it and wait, it should pick up where it left off? That's good to know.

I'm not sure how it works on the PS4's youtube app, but it works on regular computer browser Youtube.

So did DWS arbitrarily include O'Malley though he polls in like the sub 1%? I have been unplugged from how the DNC has been trying to bury Bernie so I don't know the latest scuttlebutt.

He doesn't poll sub 1%. His national average is about 2%, and he managed to get a poll at 5% in either NH or IA in the past 4 weeks.

He'd peaked at 4.7% in national poll averages at the end of December, as well.

Hillary is the most competent debater in the primary who will consistently wipe the floor with Bernie on foreign policy and defense, but because bullshit went down in 2008 the DNC foolishly tried to protect her by limiting debates and keeping a rodeo clown around to keep the heat off

You're really not paying attention to things if you think there was wacky poo poo done to get O'Malley in. He just barely squeaked by on long-set restrictions, and he probably won't make it next month unless he really picks up again, to the point he was at the end of 2015.

Is this the very first debate on network television? Its nice to not have to watch a delayed internet stream

November's was on CBS. December's was on ABC. And February's going to be on PBS.

Since an AR-15 is less powerful than most hunting rifles, it's also disconnected from reality. That's the sort of statement that alienates gun owners.

Obsessive gun owners deserve to be alienated.

This debate is 2 hours?

As far as the TV guide info says yeah. Some of that is going to be for intermissions and ads though

Slightly off topic, I'm streaming on Youtube and it says only around 300k people are watching. Is that accurate?

There's a lot more people watching on TV, and also the restreams.

And besides that, the youtube viewer counter can be a little wacky for livestreams
