Thats Funny!

Here are some of Palin's jokes at the Gridiron dinner (from John King and various other Twitter feeds):

-"It's good to be here though, really, in front of this audience of leading journalists and intellectuals, or as I like to call it, a death panel."

-"I went out for a jog. Or as Newsweek calls it--a photo shoot."

-"Sometimes you've got to trust your instincts and when you don't, you end up in places like this "

-Palin jokes if Biden hadn't been elected and was out selling his book it would be "Going Rogaine"

- "If I need a bald campaign manager, I guess all i am left with is James Carville." (dig at Steve Schmidt)

-Palin jokes big announcement: "Tomorrow I am going to Iowa ......noon to 3p at Barnes & Noble "

-Palin tells Gridiron about her book tour: "The view is better from the bus ... than under it."

-GovPalin at Gridiron jokes normally dem speaker next but: "McCain campaign staff asked if they could have that time for rebuttal."

-Palin jokes book title debate included The Audacity of the North Slope."

-Andrea Mitchell: At press dinner Palin "joked" person next to her on plane looked at picture of Obama and Chinese leader and asked which one is the communist

(That one falls flat, apparently Andrea Mitchell's twitter-fu is weak. The joke was that she was looking at the Newsweek cover of Obama and Chinese leader Hu, and the person in the next seat said "Hu's the communist." She joked that she thought he was asking a question.)

-On being on the same program as (Barney) Frank "And I'm the controversial one?"
