Clint Eastwood

Last night, Clint Eastwood put on a show at the Republican National Convention.  

The 82-year-old actor-director took the stage as Mitt Romney's "mystery speaker" holding a one-sided debate with an empty chair who he referred to as President Obama

Twitter quickly flooded with responses to Eastwood's bizarre one-man show, with reactions both praising and poking fun at the actor-director. 

The Obama Campaign got in on the act, slamming Eastwood's speech. And, there was even an account created for an "Invisible Obama" which now has more than 40,000 followers. 

Hollywood joined in, too, with a wide range of actors and television personalities giving their take on the wacky speech.

Chris Rock, Seth Meyers, and Charlie Daniels enjoyed Eastwood's bit:

Bob Newhart, George Takei, and Albert Brooks found it amusing:
