Just a quick thought: if, after a political debate, the pundits have to debate who won, then no one won.

Possibly it means that none of them are fit for office. More likely it just means none of them are any good at debate.

 

The less quick thought:

I stopped watching “the debates” a long time ago, when they ceased being actual debates where the candidates present and defend their plans, policies and means of accomplishing same against intelligent argument. When they became just raw power plays and who won was he who made the fewest mistakes and he who was the “most alpha” among the bunch (man or woman). Those are not qualifications for public office, at any level. Possibly useful on the football field, but not for anything serious.
