Could actor Clint Eastwood be the RNC’s ‘mystery’ Thursday night speaker?

Townhall’s Guy Benson reports:

 A well-placed Republican source tells Townhall that Oscar-winning director and actor Clint Eastwood will travel to Tampa, Florida to attend Mitt Romney’s nominating convention this week.  As the news media scrambles to identify the so-called “mystery speaker” scheduled to address GOP delegates on Thursday evening, some have speculated that the iconic Hollywood figure could fit the bill.

The Examiner’s Timothy P. Carney tweeted yesterday what he calls a “well reasoned guess” that it would be Eastwood, as did David Freddoso.
