CBS Late Show host David Letterman took a humorous swipe at MSNBC's Chris Matthews Friday.

In a recurring segment riffing on Zogby polls, Letterman said that 51 percent of people supporting Mitt Romney are doing so because they "Want to see Chris Matthews cry like a baby" (video follows with transcript and commentary):

Letterman: Half of Romney Supporters Just Want to See Chris Matthews Cry Like a Baby

DAVID LETTERMAN: Why do you want Mitt Romney to win the election? 23 percent said, “He'll fix the economy," he’ll fix the economy. 26 percent said, “Overturn ObamaCare.” And 51 percent said they “Want to see Chris Matthews cry like a baby.” He’s very, very histrionic that Chris Matthews.

To be honest, that's not one of my primary reasons - but I'm certainly looking forward to it.

For his part, this wasn't the first time Letterman's taken a swing at Matthews' pathetic biases.

After the first presidential debate, Letterman played a video of the Hardball host's head exploding. This came days after Jay Leno played a video of a straight-jacketed Matthews being taken away by men in white coats.

It's nice to see that it isn't only conservatives that think Matthews is a total joke.

Doesn’t go far enough...Want to see the entire MSM discredited.

That’ll do.

“will he open the Office of the President-Elect?”

Ohhh... I’d forgotten about that. What a child. He was like a little kid with his pretend fort; the logo was probably created with crayons. The man is retarded. Yes; I said, “RETARDED”, and I’m not being un-PC. “Vote out of revenge.” “Romnesia.” Next speech he’ll be saying, “I know you are, but what am I?” “That’s so funny I forgot to laugh.”

I loathe him.

My list of reasons is much longer—sort of like the ingredients list for a complicated cake.

The Chrissy Matthews crying is just the cherry on the top of all the frosting!!!

I have seen that most dementia starts with a loss of filters and the most inappropriate words spew forth from the aging person. Chris is right behind Crazy Uncle Joe Biden in the loss of mental agility. Mandatory retirement is a good thing in areas where an individual wants to hang on but does not have the cognicent ability to function at top levels. Joe will be long gone mentally by 2016. Chris is already a walking circus. It is only a question of how many clowns MSNBC wants in their big top.
