Thanks for the link - it was great!
I ca’nt believe the coverage it’s gotten. It was sarcastic, funny, interesting... all characteristics of a good presentation.
I’m sorry i missed it last night
There are at least a dozen distinct videos of Clint Eastwood at the RNC.
The one you linked is now up to nearly four times the views: 867,000 ...
The Eastwood Video posted by the (apparently) official RNC convention youtube host is at about 800,000, also.

There are videos of many of the RNC speakers available there in one easy place.
Doing a search of site:youtube.com Clint Eastwood yields more than a dozen other videos of his RNC skit. I bet dollars to donuts that more people have watched his skit on YouTube than saw the convention itself. There are also many other newsy sites that host video and don’t go through YouTube.
I believe that YouTube and other video sites are the number one reason that the TV viewing of the Convention was down. People like me are much more likely to seek out video programs we want later than to spend the time watching the TV show directly.
