Yep. Never seen Matthews at such a loss. Guess he's not used to having somebody else play hardball right back.

I just caught the very end, where James was telling Chris he hoped they were still friends. What happened, if you can condense it for me? I do adore that James Carville! Adele

Matthews was using his standard questioning technique: stepping on the answer with his own synopsis of what the answer is, with a dash of dismissiveness; ask next question at light-speed. Carville was having none of it, particularly when Matthews (in the dash of dismissiveness part) noted that well, it's over anyway. Carville proceeded to go into full Matthews mode, talking right over him and taking complete control of the discourse. When he stopped talking, it wasn't at Matthews' prompting; it was because he was finished saying what he had to say.
(All this, to coin a phrase, to the best of my recollection at this point in time. I wasn't able to devote full attention to all of it; I'm sure someone else can give a more accurate and complete description.)
