When Is The Last Presidential Debate?

Less than a week after the Town Hall Brawl, President Obama and former Gov. Romney meet for the last time Monday. Will you watch?

The first debate between President Barack Obama and former Gov. Mitt Romney was a traditional podium affair. The second one was a freewheeling 'town hall' format, with candidates strolling the stage and taking questions from real people.

Who knows what Monday night's final face off will bring, as the candidates focus on foreign policy.
