The Real Debate Loser

            If you are a Democrat, your man won the second presidential candidate’s debate.  If you are a Republican, your candidate won.  However, to those outside the constraints of partisan politics, there were no winners in this debacle showing two angry men so intent on discrediting the opposition that neither could speak without attacking the other. 
Americans deserved substantive answers to the questions that were asked, not accusations and arguing.  Surely, men that aspire to be the leader of the Free World should realize that integrity is not determined by the methods they used in their attempts to discredit each other.
For the President of the United States and the man who would be president, to act as if they were guests of Jerry Springer is beneath the dignity of the office that was the real loser in this so-called debate.
