I hope the debate stage looks exactly like that, with a portal in the middle of the room (with US map and Fox logo hovering above it), that appears to lead out into space.  Whenever one candidate accuses another of wrongdoing, the two have a trial by combat, with the loser flying through the moon door into space, never to be heard from again.  (That way there'll be a spot for Rick Perry in the next debate.)

Looks like Kasich got the worst podium from the standpoint of being near the center of attention, although this might be the best podium from the general election vantage point.

RE: NBC News
It has been noted on twitter by a few that Fox chose not to use NBC (and therefore reached back to Quinni's poll). Some speculate it is small sample size, but Charles Franklin (Pollster.com) thinks it might actually be strange wording in the NBC/WSJ question.

Unclear if FOX will ever explain its mysterious ways

Fox has actually explained itself to Politico and Franklin was right...

Will CNN kick NBC/WSJ news out of their club too?
