TELL US: Will You Watch the Final Presidential Debate?

Are the debates old hat by now, or will the last one offer valuable insight?

 

 

The third presidential debate between Barack Obama and Mitt Romney is scheduled for Monday night. Will you tune in, or have you already tuned out? 

Obama and Romney squared off in two debates earlier this month — on Oct. 3 and Oct. 16 — while the vice presidential debate was held on Oct. 11. 

For some, a third presidential debate on Oct. 22 may be overkill, if they've made their decision on who to vote for already, or just aren't that into politics. On the other hand, debates can offer further insight into the candidates, and, you never know what gems or gaffes could come out. 

So tell us: do you plan to tune into Monday night's final presidential debate? Let us know in the comments.

I wouldn't miss it. Wish more folks were really paying attention so they can vote responsibly and not like a bunch of sheep, just voting like they always have. There are no perfect candidates. Your party is not God and God is not on the ballot.

I will absolutely watch this last debate. I, too, am amazed that some folks just do not pay attention to news and debates and just go vote because ????
It also amazes me how much of an impact these debates are having.

Why waist the time watching the debate. As we all know they BOTH lie.
Can't trust either one.

Agreed, John. Look up Gary Johnson of the Libertarian ticket. He is trustworthy.

Consider these facts before you vote:
1. Is the economy better off now than it was four years ago? Based on the evidence, I'd have to say no. Wages are down, the the prices of everything we buy is up. The price of gas has doubled. Good jobs are scarce.
2. Are the slight "up tics" in the economy a solid trend in the right direction? I don't think so. First, the gains are very slight. Second, I believe they are the result in the temporary stimulus by the Federal Reserve, in which they printed a lot of new money. It provides a slight bump now, but the cost will come later - after the election. Ben Bernanke is trying to save Obama's job, along with his own.
3. The continual misrepresentation of Romney on the auto bailout by the Obama administration. Obama appears to be taking complete credit for the bailout, while simultaneously saying that Romney was for liquidation of the auto industry. This is an absolute falsehood. It was Bush who initiated the bailout and TARP. Obama continued it and then expanded it, to his credit. However, Romney was one of the first to say that the industry needed to go through bankruptcy reorganization, and eventually they did exactly that. He also said that any needed loans should come from the private sector. He never said that the industry should be liquidated, or that he would deny federal funds if he were president, and private sector funds were not available. Obama lies!
4. The Benghazi coverup and lies.

These are your opinions and you are entitled to them. They are not facts however.

Agree with you . Benghazi should be Obama's Watergate but he is protected by the media. Hardly any mention of this except on cable. Four men were murdered and it all seems forgotten. BTW Obama threw Hilary under the bus on this. He is unable to take responsibility for anything. Next he will throw Israel under the bus.
