Ok...it's plainly obvious to anyone who watches "Hardball" on MSNBC that Chris Matthews has an ego the size of Philadelphia...but who knew he was so damn narcissistic?

Mark Leibovich has quite the revealling essay in Sunday's NY Times Magazine:

As Matthews says when he hears one of his own lame jokes..."HA !"
