Final Presidential Debate Wrap-up
The final presidential debate is over and now both candidates can wonder
if their performances changed enough minds to get the edge at the
voting polls.
Latest CNN polls show President Barrack Obama won the
debate. Forty eight percent of those polled said the President won while
40 percent say former Massachusetts Governor Mitt Romney won last
night.
Despite the poll numbers, CNN is calling the debate a near draw.
Recent
Gallup polls show Obama takes the lead when it comes to foreign
affairs, 53 to 41, but Romney dominates when it comes to handling the
federal deficit, 52 to 39.
Gallup polls also show voters have great
concern over trade relations with China and its economic impact and the
relations with Israel. Both are issues Romney attempted to pound Obama
on.
How much foreign policy will matter to voters is a big question
according to analysts. Recent polls show the economy is the biggest
concern. According to Gallup, polled voters say Romney is better suited
to takes care of the economy, 49 to 45.
