Remember how a few days ago, the Romney campaign said that Willard enjoyed and laughed at Clint Eastwood’s epic rant against a piece of furniture?
They must not have liked it that much after all:
A video mash-up of speakers from last week’s Republican National Convention does not include an appearance from the ” mystery RNC speaker,” Clint Eastwood.
The two-and-a-half minute video posted today to the Romney campaign‘s YouTube account features former Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice, New Mexico Gov. Susana Martinez, Florida Sen. Marco Rubio, New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie, VP nominee Paul Ryan and of course, Romney himself, but it leaves out Eastwood‘s controversial speech.
Eastwood caused a stir at the convention and on Twitter with a rambling speech Thursday night, in which he interviewed an invisible President Obama in a wooden prop chair.
Dangit, that was the best part of the whole convention!

Hey, if they were self-flagellating, they wouldn’t be God’s elect.
And the YouTube numbers keep going up. Repubs just forgot the Gong, and big hook stick.
I think the real push behind the numbers is that no one is sure he was the fool. At first, he did sound a bit lost/fragile. But listening again, I think he sounds more focused if hesitant. He has created a true conundrum, yet we do not know if that was his intent. Hence, the fascination. But no fool, clearly. Much harder to say. Notice that R & R certainly are not commenting…either to praise or distance though distance is more the implication of their silence. I did not see Ann R, but the coverage says she looked pained. She knew her Mitt was not being flattered.
Clint Eastwood channeling Barak Obama asking Mittens to do the impossible.
I can’t wait for Saturday Night Live!
