Tonight's debate theme is foreign policy. President Barack Obama and Mitt Romney will have an hour and a half to discuss in detail their positions on how the United States will influence the world's affairs in the next 4 years. The foreign policy for the Middle East will likely be at the center of the debate.

Convention Center Funding

San Diego City Council approving financing for the expansion of the Convention Center has become the most interesting issue separating Mayoral candidates Carl DeMaio and Bob Filner.

As the debate begins, the first segment is the challenge of a changing Middle East and a new face to terrorism.

Libya:

The first segment covers the controversy over Libya, as Romney criticizes the actions taken after the attack, and warns that a vote for Obama would put us four years closer to a nuclear weapon. Obama responds, his "first job as Commander of Chief is to keep Americans safe. We ended the war in Iraq, focused our attention on our enemies, and Al Queda core leadership has been decimated."

Tonight President Barack Obama and Mitt Romney will have one last opportunity to address voters directly in the last of the 3 presidential debates.  It will be the last major event before Election Day on November 6th and will initiate the final sprint for the Holy Grail: the Presidency of the United States.
