MSNBC host Chris Matthews had what is being described as a “gas attack” during his show on Friday.
During a segment on The New Republic report about the Mitt Romney campaign’s internal polling numbers that had Romney leading in vital swing states, the “Hardball” host had his unexpected “gas attack.”
“Excuse me — I’m burping here,” he said.
Watch the clip below via MRCTV:
Newsbusters’ Noel Sheppard points out that some of Matthews’ critics have alleged that the host is sometimes drunk when he does his show on MSNBC. “His gas attack on Friday’s Hardball will certainly add to this speculation,” Sheppard writes.
Could Matthews have been drunk or was it something he ate?

Dec. 1, 2012 at 1:18pmI think the Romney camp pollsters misjudged the dead voter turnout. That is about a 5 to ten point swing to the Democrats.

Dec. 1, 2012 at 5:10pmI’m starting to think msnbc, CNN and the blaze have some sort of backdoor deal because they keep on promoting each other, with the blaze acting as a pipeline for future talking heads making it into the msm – SE Cupp, Will Cain etc

Dec. 1, 2012 at 1:02pmFirst of all, and just so ya know, Zeke48, it’s COLLARD Greens, not collar greens. And secondly, yomammyobammy wouldn’t know what collard greens are because he sure isn’t from the South USA. He may be from South Africa (if that’s were Kenya happens to be), but they aren’t into collard greens there and most likely, never heard of the vegetable. And, since he claims some ties to Hawaii, he would be more familiar with POI than Collard Greens. So, to make a long story short, please don’t put yomammyobammy where he never was!!!! Thanks!
