This reminds me... Years ago, somebody developed a technique called "Voice Stress Analysis," which was supposed to detect small variations in a person's voice in response to stress. Not exactly a lie-detector, but it was supposed to do nearly the same thing. Does anybody plan to analyze the debates for stress? Is there software to do this? (Tried to do a web-search; didn't see anything.)
The original device was the PSE, the psychological stress evaluator. It was, as still is, sold by a company called Dektor. It is located in the DC area (Maryland?) and is run by a group of ex-spooks. It's been around for 25 years or so. S a n d y ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
