A gaffe in Washington is someone telling the truth and telling the truth has never hurt me.
A gaffe is when a politician tells the truth.
Most of the gaffes I've made have not been funny - they've been stupid.
My mother's incredibly giving almost too giving at times. And my dad is a real logical person. He's got logic for every situation. They've been married for 24 years so there was that stability also. I really learned to think on my own at a very young age.
