If you live on the east coast, chances are you’re rained in tonight and what better way to spend a wet Friday evening than watching the first 2008 Presidentail Debate between Barack Obama and John McCain. And what better way to make it through the debate than by playing a fun little drinking game with a small group of your closest friends. Not sure how to play? Here’s a smattering of some of the Presidentail Debate Drinking Games spotted around the Interwebs today:
- Debate Watching Isn’t Just For Politicos [npr.org] – pretty thin and generic but worthy of inclusion for the comical fact that it comes at the recommendation of National Public Radio
- The Presidential Debate Drinking Game [Comedy Central's Indecision 2008] – wacky off-the-wall rules… would you expect any less from the folks at Comedy Central?
- Obama-McCain Presidential Debate Drinking Game [theseminal.com] – this one is pretty intense with lots of different drinks being required. Thankfully the site includes links to drink recipes for the more obscure required shots and things.
- Presidential Debate Drinking Game [The Official Blog of Author D. H. Schleicher] – This one breaks down the games nicely with generic rules for each debate and then debate-specific rules for foreign policy, the economy, etc.
- 2008 Presidential Debate Drinking Game [tvgrapevine.com] – a forum discussion with on-going rules.
And last but not least, this YouTube video from howcast.com – complete with visual instructions. Enjoy!
Hi and welcome to Blog About Beer. My name is Logan and I live just north of Portland, Oregon, a city that has more craft breweries than any other in the US. I'm a full time marketer, blogger, and dad to the most beautiful girl in the world. I'm also a homebrewing and craft beer fanatic.

Nice one, dude. I just linked to the video from my blog. I’m new to the home brew action. Read here:

How about some home brew posts?

Okay, so I see you already have some posts on home brewing. Unrelated to this post, do you typically use a blow-off tube or an air lock?
hey man – what I usually do is use a blow-off tube for the first 48 hours or so (when the heaviest bubbling is happening) and then switch to an airlock after things calm down a bit for the remainder of the fermentation. If you go blow-off the whole time, you risk airborne nasties going up the tube and into the beer… airlock the whole time and you risk a big ol’ mess!
You want a political drinking game. Watch an episode of “The O’reilly Factor” and drink a half a pint every time he says the words “Far Left”. Not “liberal” or anything like that, just the exact term “Far Left”. You’ll passed out on the floor by the end of Talking Points. oh it’s real.
you guys should try out the jersey shore drinking game, it will get you hammered in no time.
