Regarding Paul's statements about Huckabee's ad

It looks like a plus sign to me.

To claim that it is a cross or saying they intended it to be a cross by fancy camera angles, etc.. that is pure speculation in my opinion.

Uh-uh. Any good photographer will tell you that there is not one square millimeter of a staged photograph that is a coincidence.

That "cross" is just exactly as intentional as Huckabee's presence.

As a photographer I can tell you that "cross" has its own light directed specifically at it and nothing else.

I also thought the three balls is a subtle "Father, Son, and Holy Ghost" reference.

3 balls held up by the cross and the primary 'highlight' of the pin light. Gee, I am just a normal joe and that was my take when I saw the video. The pin light was the give away to me.

What then was the purpose behind rotating the camera during the video, to get the window pane into view? Just think of Ron's Christmas ad. The camera remains stationary. I'm sure that most ad's are like that (One's where a person is just sitting in front of a camera)

I'm going to have to disagree with this point. Slowly trucking a camera while remaining on the subject is a common way to add dynamic to an otherwise boring shot. Something that RP would do good to use in his adds. It's a production value booster for sure.
