Do you expect upcoming Presidential and Vice Presidential debates to sway your vote?
The consensus after last week's Presidential debate was that Republican candidate Mitt Romney won the debate with President Barack Obama. But does that really matter? A recent article in The Washington Post states that analysts differ on the question. Some point to debates with John F.

Obama and Romney will meet again on Oct. 16 and 22. Will you be watching?
