I saw the digital still that seemed to clearly show a squared off object in Kerry's hand. I wondered if there were any door or window at that location which might have let in light; but that didn't seem likely they would allow a door or window light to be showing at that point in the debates. - I tried to look objectively, but it sure did look a lot like either a notecard or a pack of notecards, or some such thing. - In addition, did Kerry put anything back in his pocket after, or during the debates; or if he left something on the podium, there would have had to have been a confederate to pick it up after the debate. - -
On the channel I watched, it seemed to me that the stage lighting over Bush was a yellowish tinged one, while the one over Kerry was a full spectrum light. Did anyone else notice this? It would be so easy for a Bush hater in the setup crew to do little things that added up to make Kerry look better. (A yellow light would make a person's coloring look jaundiced or washed out. I kept thinking Bush looked remarkably well, for there to be a yellowish light over him. Maybe I'm just being paranoid or imagining things.)
Twinkie, I hadn't even thought about the lighting, even though I did look at Bush several times and think he looked exhausted, spent. Can someone with a good recording take a look at this issue?
