Election night drinking game

reporteraliza and I have been coming up with rules for an election night drinking game.

These are the ones we've come up with so far, feel free to add more if you can think of any.


1. Every time they show footage of either candidate (or VP candidate)
going to the polls in their home state, you take a shot. (extra- If
Sarah Palin uses tanned moose-hide to make her ballot, take two
shots.)

2. Every time a state return is announced, take a shot.

3. If a swing state swings, swing your glass and take a shot.

4. If a state breaks from tradition and switches sides, take a shot.

5. Every time someone says "Joe the Plumber", take a shot.

6. Every time someone says "Joe-SixPack" take six shots.

7. Every time a candidate or pundit refers to "the shrinking middle class" take increasingly smaller shots.

8. Every time you see John McCain, drink an aged whiskey.

9. Every time you see Barack Obama, change your glass with someone else's.

10. Every time someone says "soccer mom" take a shot.

11. Any time Wolf Blitzer's name is said in full, take a shot. If they use the phrase "We take you live now to CNN's Wolf Blitzer," take two shots.

12. Any time someone mentions Sarah Palin's foreign policy record, drink a white Russian.

13. Any time someone mentions "values voters", drink a Sex on the Beach.
