Momlogic's Debate Drinking Game: Town Hall Style

Tuesday, October 7, 2008

Tonight at 9PM ET, Senator Barack Obama and Senator John McCain will go head to head in the second of three presidential debates. The debate, moderated by Tom Brokaw, will be set up like a town hall meeting. The candidates will not only take questions from Brokow, but they will also have to answer questions from audience and Internet participants. Well, after last week's Vice Presidential Debates, (and SNL's spoof and mention of said drinking game), we couldn't resist the urge to raise our glasses again and get tipsy on politics.

drinking game

Here's what you'll need:
- Shot glasses (one for everyone watching, NOT including your three-year-old).
- Alcohol: take your pick! (Beer, vodka, gin, tequila. You're pouring, so you choose).

Rules:
Since this debate is set up like a Town Hall Meeting, teams are not necessary. This time, it's always a "Social!" So you must must drink every time a candidate says any one of the key phrases listed below. (Make sure you have ordered a pizza, because this debate might leave you feeling a little buzzed!)

TOWN HALL SOCIAL!
Drink IF...
-Either says "working" or "Middle Class"

-Either candidate says "bailout"
-Either candidate says anything about homes ... "mortgages," "foreclosures," or "Pottery Barn"
-Either says "also, too" or "you betcha!"
-McCain talks about being a P.O.W.
-Obama talks about growing up with a single mother
-Either of them says ANYTHING about education (actually, take two shots)
-Obama says "John McCain has voted with George Bush 90% of the time"
-McCain says "Russia" (Two shots if he says Palin can see Russia from her window)

-Either of them says "Same Sex Marriage" without looking uncomfortable.
-Obama says anything about the South Side of Chicago
-Either talks about being a friend to Israel. (Double shot if John McCain says he's "Israel's BFF")
-Either candidate refers to the audience or Internet participants as "friends," "my friends," or "folks," (Take TWO shots if they call them "peeps")
-Either candidate says "Main Street" (ie. "Just another mom and pop store down on Main Street")
-John McCain calls himself a "Hockey Mom."
-Barack Obama calls himself "Hollywood."
-Either of them actually say "Joe Six Pack" (And take three shots if either of them FLASH us their six pack)
