If former HUD Secretary Julian Castro appeared taller during Thursday nightâ€™s debate on ABC, thatâ€™s because he was standing on a booster box.

As the debate began, the opening pans showed at least three of the candidates standing on booster boxes: Minnesota Sen. Amy Klobuchar, California Sen. Kamala Harris and Castro.

According to those near the stage, Castroâ€™s booster may have even been larger than the boxes being used by Klobuchar and Harris.

Funny what it says about him when he's already the tallest man in the line, and it ain't enough...

Says even more about Castro, that he was ignorant of that feature, and wound up being the kid who has to sit on the phone book at the dinner table. :whistle:
