Democratic National Committee chair Debbie Wasserman Schultz joked about Republicans having a debate on Super Bowl weekend — in a thinly veiled attack against those who have criticized the Democratic leadership for scheduling debates on weekends to limit viewership and, in effect, protect Hillary Clinton from making a widely televised blunder.

Hmmm, wondering why @GOP trying to hide their #GOPdebate on the Saturday of #SuperBowl weekend no less?! — D Wasserman Schultz (@DWStweets) February 6, 2016

Wasserman Schultz later clarified she was only pointing out that both parties schedule debates on weekends, and there's nothing nefarious about it.

Of course, there's a difference between scheduling a couple of debates on weekends and scheduling most of them on weekends. While Republicans have had seven debates on weekdays up to this point, Democrats would only have had one weekday debate if the campaigns hadn't essentially rebelled and forced the party to schedule a debate this past Thursday, along with three other debates in the future.

Besides, this is the weekend before the New Hampshire primary election on Tuesday, which is quite different from a seemingly random weekend in November, December, or January — all months when no one officially voted.

Update: Democratic spokesperson Luis Miranda followed up on this post with an email:
