Scott: Good point. I agree. I think there is a focus on who won because the debates are supposed to be a contest. The press likes the idea of a "winner" (hence my title) because people are interested in that, usually more than in the iissuesthat were discussed.

Thank you for reading the piece. Much appreciated.
