On Thursday, President Obama & Republican presidential candidate Mitt Romney will give keynote speeches at the 67th Annual Alfred E. Smith Memorial Foundation Dinner in New York City. The fundraiser, held at the Waldorf Astoria Hotel, will offer a light-hearted evening for the candidates.
Past speakers at the dinner include politicians, journalists, and presidential candidates including former Pres. George H. W. Bush & Michael Dukakis in 1988; Al Gore & Jack Kemp in 1996; and Pres. Obama and then-Republican presidential candidate Sen. John McCain in 2008.
Founded in 1946 by Francis Cardinal Spellman, the Foundation honors the memory of Alfred E. Smith who died in in 1944. Smith was a four-time governor of the state of New York and former presidential candidate.

At least Obama is laughing at his own jokes. Sure he his. Jokes are always the funniest the very first time you hear them.

I honestly was not a big fan of Romney during the Primaries. However, I really have come to like this guy.

If Romney could have incorporated “Internal Server Error” into his schtick he could have hit the FR trifecta.
WTF is going on here?
This thing has been over for 20 minutes and we still can’t post to this thread.
To: tomkat
Romney delivered some great lines...too bad you couldn’t see Zero grinding his teeth...
