Chris Matthews easily identifies Democrats, Republicans

MSNBC’s Chris Matthews has a rather humorous way to pick out the Democrats from the Republicans in a crowd. He suggests going to the movies. “There will be a few people there 10 minutes early and they may have a small candy bar for their refreshment — they are all Republicans,” the “Hardball” host said Thursday, during what felt like a stand-up routine at the Washington Ideas Forum.

As for the Democrats, they are tardy for the party. “Wait until after the ads are finished and all the trailers are done…and the theater has gone black, pitch black and you’ll feel someone trying to push past you,” Matthews explained. “They will have trashcans of popcorn, they will have giant jugs of Coca-Cola and they will be mumbling happily something about, ‘what time did it start?'”

Those, Matthews contends, are the Democrats.
