I'm guessing he sort of winged it and was making it up as he went along.
Naturally, all Leftist/Libs/Commies/RATS, etc. and their sycophant Dear Reader supporters are going to be upset that a notable Hollyweird actor was making sport of their Messiah.
I thought I was going to fall out of my chair when he supposedly was told by O'Bummer to tell Mitt to go fungool himself and said: "what do you want me to tell Romney? I can’t tell him to do that. I can’t tell him to do that to himself.
Tooooo funny.
He brought the house down when he said "We own this country" and he said what needs to be said over and over and over: The pols (and all other gov't employees) "WORK FOR US", hinting "We hire(d) you, we can fire your worthless asses" and then he drove the Libs nuts when he made a throat cutting gesture.
Not sure if this is true but I read on a thread a few minutes ago that his telepromter froze on the first page. He was doing it from memory. Not bad for a 80 year old.
He was...
...honest
...understandable
...making good points
...dishing out some good one-liners
...delivering an effective case that we need to rid ourselves of Obama
...worth having in prime time for the American cause

I had the same impression.
Of course, a true actor could do that without much effort. It’s what they do.
Also, and this is so important... Clint... unlike so many other Hollywood people who intrude themselves into politics or are actually invited (as I am sure Clint was) to speak in favor of a candidate or a policy... Clint did not dash out and hire a dozen overpriced speechwriters for himself or make any more out of the invitation than it was. He didn’t behave as if he thought it was ABOUT HIM, but rather focused on the election and the issues.
In his very natural, casual and almost off-hand delivery, Clint conveyed that he knew very well what his place was and why he was there. He never once behaved as if it was about HIM.... he was very clearly there FOR MITT … and did NOT grandstand.
Good for him.

I read somewhere today that it was “unscripted”. It was a little strange, but I always forget that Eastwood did some comedies too, with that monkey side-kick.
But, he made the most important point - when someone isn’t getting the job done, you have to let them go.
