Someone pledging their support for one candidate doesn't mean that it will wind up being the case. I'm not saying I agree with the Superdelegates or their impact, however when it comes down to it they make up about 15% on each side and they can change. The Superdelegates haven't changed the nominee.
They did in 2008. Hillary claims to have won the vote. But when Bill Clinton opened his big mouth and insulted a large number of African American superdelegates, they switched to Obama. Rest is history.
But no matter. Those super delegates will absolutely insure that Hillary Clinton is nominated. The actual primary is pointless as is the "pretend" debates. The DNC has already picked their nominee.
It did better than football but at 7.2 million was 1/2 the last Democratic debate.
The 3 weekend GOP debates coming up will do better because they have more fumbles and entertainment value.
"A Democratic Party presidential debate on CBS drew the smallest audience thus far among the series of primary debates — not much surprise given its Saturday-night slot. It scored a 1.5 rating in adults 18-49 and 7.22 million viewers. By comparison, the first Democratic debate on CNN in October brought in a 3.4 rating and more than 15 million viewers.

You are leaving out the whole Caucus issue. Hillary did better in the Primary states, Obama did better in the Caucus states. Obama's margin in the Caucus states was greater than her margin in the Primary states. He had more of the Pledged Delegates (whose results were directly tied to the Primary and Caucus) and more of the Super Delegates. In the end the Super Delegates went the same way the pledged Delegats went despitte Hilalry's strong initial lead.
Having the Super Delegats now are good for bragging rights, but they have yet to overturn the results of the Pledged Delegates, and as I mentioned its about 15% of the overall Delegates on each side, slightly higher on the GOP side.
That would be about half of what the first debate was. It seems that half the people are saying if you have seen one there is no need for more. Three clowns does not a circus make. Time to bring in the Gladiators.

Yes, GOP debates do better because they have a full circus with more clowns.
Finally we agree !!! If you want good answers ask the conservatives.
And I will agree with you that conservatives do seem to reject things they are unable to grasp. I guess we both get points for selective comprehension.
As for good answers from conservatives, well, I guess that's all a matter of perspective.
