After months of speeches, advertisements and long-distance pot shots, President Obama and Republican rival Mitt Romney square off face-to-face Wednesday night at 6 p.m. PDT for the first of three presidential debates.
Held at the University of Denver, and moderated by former PBS “NewsHour” anchor Jim Lehrer, the debate will be focused on domestic policy issues ranging from the economy to Medicare. The debates will last until 7:30 p.m. PDT, and be broken into six 15-minute segments, each of which will be devoted to a particular topic.
