WASHINGTON (AP) - Mitt Romney hit an off note when he told a "humorous" story about his dad shutting down a factory.
Robert De Niro managed to get both Newt Gingrich and the Obama campaign riled up when he joked at an Obama fundraiser that America isn't ready for a white first lady.
Texas Gov. Rick Perry, still nursing wounds from his failed presidential campaign, did himself a world of good with his self-deprecating jokes at a recent Washington dinner.
Done right, humor can be a huge asset for a politician. But it is fumbled easily in the overheated environment of a political campaign.
