That's what I thought originally; however (and, surprisingly, more charitably), I now think that it may partially explain why he looked so utterly nonplussed -- circuit overload.
Then again, if he was going to cheat -- you'd think he'd have rehearsed the "talking in the earpiece, then spewing out what you tell me" schtick. Apparently, this Cyrano act is not unprecedented for this president.
It is curious that they didn't want any camera angles shot from behind the candidates -- it seems like an odd request.
