Late Night Talk Show, 2012 Presidential Election | featured news

Jimmy Fallon imagines what Mitt Romney may have said to President Obama during their election night chat.

President Obama got back at Donald Trump by mocking him -- and himself -- over citizenship claims. "This all dates back to when we were growing up together in Kenya," Obama joked to The Tonight Show's Jay Leno on Wednesday. "We had constant run-ins on the soccer field." Obama added to laughter. "He wasn't very good and resented it. ... When we finally moved to America, I thought it would be over."

The president told the "Late Show" audience that Mr. Romney was "writing off a big chunk of the country."

Mitt Romney is a merry prankster. So say his five sons -- Tagg, Matt, Josh, Ben and Craig -- who appeared together last night on Conan O'Brien's show. It was billed as the first joint interview of the Romney Boys, as they're sometimes called in the news media, who are a frequent presence on the campaign trail.

GOP Presidential candidate Michele Bachmann received an apology from an NBC executive after an off-color song was played during her appearance on Jimmy Fallon's "Late Night," her spokeswoman said late Wednesday....

Republican presidential contender Michele Bachmann, whose gaffes have made her a favorite punching bag for Jay Leno and other late-night comedians, paid Leno a visit Friday. In her first appearance on "The Tonight Show," Bachmann tried to show her lighter side — even making a joke about Christian anti-gay therapy, but Leno challenged her on gay rights, the HPV vaccine, her opposition to raising the federal debt ceiling and other conservative positions.
