I get the impression he has a good sense of humor on his own. He can really zap some good one-liners.

Of course you were being Silly -- you know he is clever enough to throw off these quips easily on his own. What a funny guy.

I remember back in '96, Letterman asked Dole why he was running for President. "Well, every country deserves a President," replied Dole.

His advisors had Dole rein in his humor during the '96 campaign. I don't know if it would've made any difference in the final result, but I still think it was one of the biggest mistakes of his campaign.

I remember one time a reporter asked Dole something like " Who is boss in your family?"

Dole said "I'm not sure, you'll have to ask Elizabeth"

It's too bad his humor escaped from him when he was running for president.

Dole has always been able to create funny material. He does not need joke writers. But many Joke writers have stolen Dole's material.

The Viagra Poster Boy? Dole definitely has a sense of humor and doesn't take himself too seriously. He normally walked on egg shells around Clinton, who obviously intimidated him somehow.

If only Dole would come clean why he was such a wussy campaigner in '96.
