As host of her very own MSNBC program, the loquacious Rachel Maddow pretty much always has something to say about the day’s issues. But occasionally, even Maddow gets tongue-tied. Like, for example, when she tried to explain actor Clint Eastwood’s dialogue with an empty chair at the Republican National Convention.

“I don’t — I don’t — I don’t know what was going on there,” she said. “Clint Eastwood is 82 years old and I think that — I don’t know if that’s what was going on there.” Maddow then tried to go through what the speech was all about, but seemed to be having a difficult time piecing together Eastwood’s rambling and oft-times bizarre speech.

She finally concluded, “That was the weirdest thing I’ve ever seen at a political convention in my entire life, and it will be the weirdest thing I’ve ever seen if I live to be 100.”
