Tomorrow, John McCain will give his acceptance speech.
You want to watch.
You can only watch with a drink in hand.
You shouldn't be drinking alone.
Therefore: it's time for a watch party.
Drinking Liberally is working with People For the American Way on a national night of gatherings -- fittingly called "McCain on the Rocks." You can find a local get-together, or check with your area DL chapter to see if they are hosting something.
Check out the official Acceptance Speech Drinking Game. Additionally, Bill Nothstine from our exceptional Portland, Oregon chapter has created rules an alternative version you can play all night long (sip if a speaker references his POW experience; drink if McCain speaks of his POW experience; chug if anyone says how much McCain doesn't like to mention his POW experience).
Now McCain will not talk to the press
They're asking hard questions, I guess
And they're kicked off the bus
Where they can't cause a fuss
So much for the Straight Talk Express
When the RNC meets in St. Paul
It will kick off a most dismal fall
If their best hope is Palin
Their luck must be failin'
So they'll come at a crawl if at all
I wanted to pass along this great announcement from the People for the American Way Voters Alliance.
We've made a commitment to support the infrastructure of the online progressive movement, and there's no better way to do that than supporting ActBlue," said People For the American Way Voters Alliance President Ralph G. Neas.
"And there's no better day to announce our partnership than Blogosphere Day. The power of ordinary Americans working together for change should never be underestimated. We're helping to build the infrastructure so that Americans can use that power to support progressive candidates, and elect the officials- Democrats, Republicans and Independents - a great democracy deserves.
I've also now posted a giant summation with quotes from all of the participants in Blogosphere Day here on the ActBlue Blog.
