U.S. presidential candidates John McCain and Barack Obama today (Thursday) jointly announced they will take part in three presidential debates before the November general election.

The debates are scheduled to take place in late September and October and will focus on foreign policy, national security, and economic and domestic policy.

A debate between the still-unnamed vice presidential candidates is scheduled for October 2nd.

On the campaign trail today, Senator Obama lashed out against McCain, mocking the Arizona senator for reportedly being unsure of how many homes he and his wife own.

In (the city of Chester, in the eastern state of)Virginia, the Democratic senator portrayed his Republican opponent as someone who is out of touch with struggling Americans.

Obama also accused McCain of "backpedaling" (backing away from his position)for denying that he had questioned Obama's patriotism by suggesting that Obama put his personal ambitions ahead of the country's interests.

Senator McCain had no public events scheduled today.
