election:

Did Mitt Romney cheat in Wednesday’s debate? This slowed-down closeup posted to YouTube makes it appear as though he reaches into his pocket, pulls out a paper and places it on his lectern, in violation of rules that stated:

No props, notes, charts, diagrams, or other writings or other tangible things may be brought into the debate by any candidate.

(Attention gif makers.)

Oh. OH. That’s a heck of a twist! You can see he throws some paper on the lectern, clearly, near the end. So, he broke the rules? How does that affect things?
