For the past couple of year politicians, journalists and lobbyists come together for the Demers Group fund-raiser. The event is known for politicians making jokes about one another. Here is a rundown of the best jokes from the event. Best jokes: Gov. John Lynch: “Fergus is worried about Democrats sitting-in on Republican strategy meetings. If he wants to help Republicans, he’d keep Republicans out of their strategy meetings.” - Hillary Clinton: "It’s my party, I'll cry if I want to" - Obama: “Just wants to see the obama girl video over and over,” - McCain: "When I’m 64." - Kucinich: "Iimage all the people... voting just for me" - Huckabee: "What if god was one of us." - Spitzer: "Love don’t cost a thing." - Hodes: "He told me all of you had this patchwork musical CD." Shea-Porter: "Help, I need some money. Guinta: "All I need is a miracle." Number of jokes about Clegg’s weight loss: 9.
