At this point, its pretty rare that knockout punches are delivered in debates anymore, the last outright knockout punch I remember in any leadership debate was Mulroney tearing John Turner a new one in a leadership debate.
And I think Reagan in a presidential debate against MD.
At this point, the battle is for the what 5% undecided voters who really aren't going to decide until their sitting in the ballot boxes.
I personally think that there should always be a final debate on the night of the vote so that people go to the box with a fresh memory of the candidates.

The number of undecided voters is actually still quite large for being so close to an election
