I suppose I see this because I'm an optician, so I'll point it out. People who wear glasses show reflections of what they're looking at, and some things can be deduced by looking at those reflections.
There's a large square source of light. It is offset to the right on her glasses, which means one of three things.
1) It's offset to the left from her view.
2) It's in the center of her view, and she naturally tilts her head slightly to the right while speaking.
3) It's in the center of her view and she wears her glasses slightly offset.
Next, the square source of light has a slight obstruction at the top right (from her view), and that obstruction is probably hanging more than a few feet in front of the square source of light, based on the paralax effect, where you see it in her right lens but not the left (from her perspective).
And there's another light or two there that appear to be from a chandelier.
My opinion is that the source of light is a window across the room, and from her view is to the left of the camera. There's no teleprompter, but the speech is rehearsed a few times.
Good job, Todd!
Well heck, why is always my typos that get quoted ; }
Seriously - it is sad, that this kind of backbone and honesty was so long in coming, but I am SO grateful for it! I have been heard to say waaay too many times, that I longed for a candidate who simply said what they thought, as opposed to saying what they thought I wanted to hear.
To be willing to let the chips fall where they may... well, maybe Sarah really is that candidate....
May God continue to give us choices, and the wisdom to choose carefully... like checking BEFORE posting ; P

Probably somebody with a degree in Communications and who has probably authored two best selling books in the last 2 years.
Brilliant! Well said, Marlowe.
WBAP AM in Dallas - Ft Worth just ran an excerpt of her speech during the break before Rush. It was a news feed from ABC Radio News.
I've been saying for years that she's the best retail politician of the 21st century so far. She's right on the issues too.
Anyone who runs against her in the primaries will be beaten.
She does still have a problem with the female vote and that makes the general an iffy proposition.
I wonder who wrote that speech for her. She can’t put two sentences together.
That speech was so filled with hate speech.
How dare she display that pathetic american flag. Yeah, yeah, she’s sooooo Patriotic. Makes me want to throw up. Oh, yeah, did you notice her lapel pin? Gag me.
Who puts slate tile on their fireplace? I mean, seriously?
She can talk all she wants. It’s still her fault.
Ronald Reagan? You mean the guy who raised the deficit by going crazy with the military budget?
Okay, sarcasm off now.
Good Job, Governor!
Many thanks for your very considerate response, devolve. I didn’t mean to put you on the spot like that. It’s just that some, particularly liberal lurkers, might not have believed the images were for real. Thanks for clarifying. Comes as no surprise, though. The Left has a long history of violence-provoking hate speech. Obama has spent his entire life around such types.
You can bet your bottom dollar that Obama's team is furiously re-writing the text of his prepared remarks, as we speak. He'll now be forced to rise out of the muck he normally inhabits, and try to appear presidential for once.
At the end of the day, we'll see who comes off more like a President. My money's on Sarah.

Nicely done, and the timing is perfect.
Now lets see what kind of nonsense Barry serves up this afternoon.
Pretty good. I was impressed.
Thanks!
Thanks!
Funny how, not one of the others, Romney, Thume, etc etc got the nerve or reason to get up and say anything. Why?
They were not blamed for the murders. Sarah was. I doubt that Sarah would have given that speech had she not been singled out.
History is unfolding before your very eyes, but you're too impatient to spare 7 minutes to witness it. Unbelievable.
The bigger reason is because Palin is a leader and the others are not. They didn’t have the courage to call out the media. It might ruin their chances of being elected by the press.
Only 304 views on YouTube?
It’s also on FB and other sites.
Exactly!! BOR likes to hear himself talk too much to take time to play the whole video.
