When is the Third Presidential Debate?

A number of pundits say President Barack Obama and Governor Mitt Romney split the first two presidential debates with the governor taking the opening round and the president the second one.

If you subscribe to that view, and are keeping score, then you might be looking at Monday's finale in Florida as the rubber game.

It's a fitting place for the deciding debate given the Sunshine State is both a swing state and of great importance in the all-important Electoral College.

Lots of prospective voters from Florida and the other 49 states have been tuning in to the debates.

The Nielsen Company put the television audience for the first debate at 67.2 million and the audience for the second debate slightly smaller at 65.6 million.

The third presidential debate between Obama and Romney is set for 9 p.m EST on Monday, Oct. 22. The topic is the foreign policy.
