Obama and Romney were both at the Al Smith dinner recently, organized by New York Catholics, which essentially boils down to a jokefest. I just watched it, and both Obama and Romney did well. Here are Romney's best jokes. (Obama's jokes don't really separate well from speech, so I am not including them here.)
Romney
Wearing a tux, Romney said that it was nice that he was able to "relax and wear what Ann and I wear around the house."
About being invited to the dinner party: "Usually when I get invited to gatherings like this it's just to be the designated driver."
He said he was thankful to have "someone who's a comforting presence without whom we wouldn't be able to go another day. I have my beautiful wife Ann and [Obama] has Bill Clinton."
About how the media headlines that would follow the dinner: "Obama embraced by Catholics. Romney dines with rich people."
