Gabbard is on the conservative side of the party, but she hasn't endorsed and is probably near the top of Hillary's enemy list now.

Debbie should resign. Not because she's incompetent, which she clearly is, but because she's the least likeable person in the world. Even dictators comes across as more sympathetic than her lol. I'm sure that even Hillary doesn't like her. Every time she appears on telly, the Democratic party loses a point in the next poll.

I thought the article meant she was uninvited from participating in the debate and I'm like "wait wut"

But yeah, someone fire DWS. (now)

Six debates is more than enough (normal).

How? We should always have as many opportunities to hear and understand the policies and ideas of the people who will be our next Presidents.

Gabbard is chump-change.  If she's near the top of Hillary's enemy list, then congratulations President Clinton.

I agree. Also, as contemptible as DWS is, I don't think she is stupid enough to "disinvite" a DNC member from the debate, especially one that leaks like a sieve. This thing is (probably) a misunderstanding or a miscommunication between staff members.

I don't particularly care about the debate thing. The Republicans need more because they have ten wildly different, competing views trying to get their voices heard in a massive field. The Democrats have two serious candidates, so polarized that virtually no one is going to switch from one to the other. Webb, O'Malley, and Chafee have clearly shown they belong at the kiddy table, and this only changes if Biden chooses to get in. Even then, six debates with three serious candidates seems fine. This isn't the insane scrum of the Republican side.

I wonder if Debbie Wasserman Schultz has even one (non-ironic) supporter on this forum.

Do Republicans count as ironic supporters?

It would be really funny if one of the candidates invited her to the debate (can they do that?).

Yeah seriously. Does anyone think that the 8,000 debates last year on the GOP side improved anything?

Gabbard is a DNC Vice-Chair, and apparently she wasn't the only one disinvited. Minneapolis Mayor R.T. Rybak (another DNC Vice-Chair) was also disinvited. They're waging holy war on anyone and everyone who opposes them at this point.

Wow. Well, I'd certainly trust 2 DNC vice chairs over Debbie downer.

This just proves that DWS hates freedom and wants to run her party like a dictatorship

Er... what? It seems like he was not invited to the debate in the first place. That's different from being un-invited.

Proof that the Democratic establishment doesn't give a single damn what the voters think.

Nope, the voters think that six debates is more than enough. Looks like the establishment and the voters see eye to eye on this one. I'm afraid you're gonna need more "proof", bud.
