Not much if any, maybe 2 points max. Obama won the debate by most polls, but it wasn't by enough to make much of a difference. There also seemed to be an expectation of an Obama rebound, perhaps connected to some weird American tendency to turn these debates into a three game playoff series where we want to see a rubber match as though we wouldn't if the same candidate won both of the first two. If that last sentence doesn't make any sense, it's not supposed to. Yet it seemed to be the consensus opinion of most of my non-ideologue friends.
