Watch Mitt Romney face off with Jimmy Fallon on The Tonight Show


Mitt Romney poked fun at his reputation as being robot-like during a bit on Wednesday's The Tonight Show, in which he gave himself a pep talk before his interview with Jimmy Fallon. Taking a cue from Michael Jackson, Romney had a discussion with the man in the mirror — a gray-haired Fallon — and joked about having a flat laugh and sons named "Tag, Tad, Tweet, Tumblr, and Tinder." It wasn't all about Romney though, as he got in a few jabs about Hillary Clinton's email debacle and President Obama's penchant for playing golf. Watch the video below. —Catherine Garcia
