Even the cinematography was choreographed, I noticed that last night. Go to the part where Obama is “vindicate” regarding his statements on Benghazi, and they show Obama standing in the background, looking back at Romney, who they show sitting in his chair, from behind, in the foreground. This shot was arranged to make Romney look small, as if he was a schoolboy being lectured by Professor Obama. It’s a pretty standard cinematic trick.
Now, the proof that this was intentional is that, if you look at the rest of the debate, there are many times when Romney looks back at Obama sitting in his chair to talk to him, but they NEVER shoot that from an angle where you see Obama’s back. It’s always either a wide angle shot showing the front of both of them, or a shot showing Romney’s back. They purposefully placed the cameras so that they could get shots making Romney look diminutive and Obama superior.
I wasn’t that observant but it sure makes sense now that you mention it. A lot of money and preparation went into this fiasco. What infuriates me is the GOP leadership allowing this to occur OVER AND OVER again. Decade after decade.
