This week marked the third presidential debate among Republican candidates, the second for Democrats. Democrat Hillary Clinton won points for being polished and commanding. John McCain was criticized by Republicans for supporting the immigration bill, but won praise for the way he defended his position. Eighteen months before the election, are the debates more about style than substance? Are voters even paying attention?

Sara Terry guest hosts.
