With the conclusion of the first debate, the unanimous conclusion is that Romney had the upper hand while Obama seemed to drop the ball. Obviously it's too early to tell when it comes to polling - we will have to wait at least a week for a full picture of the outcome: What effect do you think this will ultimately have on the race to the White House?
Gallup has the president's approval rating sitting at 54% today, and disapproval at 42%. In the head to head election matchup, Obama is at 49%, while Romney is at 45%. FiveThirtyEight has Obama's chances of winning at 86.1% right now. Note that these were all computed before the debate.
How much of a drop (if any) do you predict?
