Dissembling

The NYT decides that, in fact, there was no winner in the debate last night.

Theirs was a glaringly public confrontation that looked oddly intimate and personal... If anything, these confrontations look more like a dispute in couples therapy: neither partner can really win, but either one could get rattled and blurt out something unforgivable.

That scale-tipping moment didn’t happen.

Riiiiiight. Lets just... "call it a draw."
