Did he get a tingle running up his leg?
In all seriousness, DEFINITELY.
Specifically at the very end of the interview, the moment Rand kinda/sorta/almost choked up telling the story about the woman soldier he met last week...
"I meet women; I met a woman last week and she gave me her picture and it was her in fatigues and her with her weapon and she said she loved the military and she said that when you see Senator Gillibrand - and it chokes me up just thinking about it - she says when you see Senator Gillibrand give her this picture to show her that I'm proud of both me [Rand] and her [Gillibrand] for leading the effort on this."
For those saying they loathe Matthews (and/or think he's an evil partisan hack like Maddow), I honestly think that Matthews is going to be one of Rand's most vocal "supporters" in the MSM - certainly during the upcoming primaries and if it's Rand v. Clinton, quite possibly during the general.
Matthews, at his core, is one of the most honestly+openly+genuinely "political" talking heads on TV - and by "political" I mean, the only thing he really seems to care about, be interested in, respect and/or think matters is how a politician's actions, statements, positions, and personas play politically. And on this level, Matthews definitely has real/legitimate respect for Rand... because Rand plays the political game better than anyone else in Washington save Obama circa 2008.
Last but not least, Matthew's son is a "big fan" of Rand as well
