Hardball's' Chris Matthews Loses Big on Jeopardy

We'll take "People Who Aren't as Smart as They Think They Are" for $800, Alex. "Hardball" host Chris Matthews made a less-than-impressive showing on "Jeopardy!" last night, a bomb-fest that was extra hilarious considering the many, many times he's said Sarah Palin would struggle on the show. Matthews looked confused and outmatched on the "Power Players" episode, which also featured former White House press secretary (and eventual winner) Robert Gibbs and CNN reporter Lizzie O'Leary. He shouted out answers when it wasn't his turn and flunked basic arithmetic -- saying Istanbul fit the category of "6-Letter Capitals." Matthews came in third. There was no fourth.

Love it!
