Why is everyone fighting about who wins or loses debates?

I mean this isn't the NFL. We are supposed to get ideas and information from these. This one was supposed to be about Foriegn Policy and we end up hearing about who likes women more. Shouldn't we demand that they answer the questions asked instead of turning each question into something else they want to talk about. Do you really think anyone's vote will sway when the debate turns into some type of MTV reality show?
