So are you going to drink booze on election night?

[trumad]

I'm afraid that I might get blasted.....

[Logansquare]

1. Only after the concession speech nt

[endnote]

2. No way. Got to be ready for the riots, if necessary.

:D

[Dookus]

6. oh please

EVERYBODY knows drunken riots are way better than sober ones!

[Kipepeo]

26. LOL

Drunken riots with pitchforks. That's always better.

[masonfl]

9. Um. Yes.

Just like during the first debate. Well, maybe not quite that much. After the first debate I called everyone I know to say how excited I was about Kerry's performance channel surfed to see the "analysis" on the cable channels and stumbled to bed: not my normal practice. The stress got to me.

[0007]

38. This freeper is a riot

[StupidFOX]

49. I WOULD, but it would be kinda...

illegal ;)

[Beetwasher]

3. It's Mandatory

n/t

[SammyWinstonJack]

22. LOL

I was sober on election night '00. I was so sure that Gore would win, I went to bed early. Got up and what a shock! This time, I can't say what I will do. I can say I won't be watching the MSM. I guess I will rely on the hearty souls at DU to tell what is happening. I am a coward and I admit it.

[tomfodw]

4. Drunkest I ever got in my life...

...was election night 1980. Drank an entire bottle of Calvados. Didn't really help much.

[exliontamer]

5. Shit, I've already started

If not for booze I would have killed the Freeper next door a week ago.

[SammyWinstonJack]

25. LOL

Welcome to DU :hi:

[Flammable Materials]

7. I wouldn't mind a little 'tobacco'. n/t

[exliontamer]

14. Kind

By the time this thing is over I'll be graduating to crack.

[Moonbeam_Starlight]

44. That would probably help me more than alcohol.

[fujiyama]

48. You know

the Bush in your picture looks a lot like Nixon.

[despairing optimist]

59. Love the picture, but doesn't he look a bit like Sinatra?

Doobie doobie doo, doo doo doo dee da, da da da da da . . .

[billkurtmeyer]

8. I am stocked up already - a case of beer and a fifth of jack, however

I am going to have to go out for replenishments after tonight - I don't want to get as drunk and depressed as I did way back in 72 (I was in high school) I am thinking that this time my tears could be of joy!

[Robeson]

10. Does a fat baby fart?

[T Town Jake]

11. Once the Kerry victory is announced I'll probably celebrate...

...with a few stiff ones. But not until then; staying sober and clear-eyed until the victory I sense coming is a done deal.

[Yo_Mama_Been_Loggin]

32. I agree

If I get drunk and it goes the other way I won't responsible for what I might do.

[Guava Jelly]

12. shit yeah Im gonna be piss drunk and celebrating it will be four new

years eve partys wrapped into one.
I plan to be hurling my guts out in the toilet while bush delivers his concession speach smiling as i whipe what was dinner off of my lips.
:) to descriptive??

[senseandsensibility]

30. Way too descriptive!

My goal is to partake enough to enhance the experience of a glorious Kerry victory, but not enough mar it with any kind of physical pain. I want this to be an all out positive experience. Might take a little planning.

[Mandate My Ass]

13. Yes

The only thing in doubt is whether it'll be expensive champagne or Everkleer.

[missouri dem]

15. Maybe a wee medicinal dram

[MissB]

16. After hearing ever so briefly about a plane fire on Edward's plane

I think I'll start drinking tonight, thank-you-very-much.

[RoadRunner]

17. Oh yeah.

Why change my routine just because of election night?

:smoke:

[BrotherBuzz]

18. I've got a few bottles of Pinot Noir

that I bottled in '97. They are waiting, and so am I.

[Bryan]

19. Not to put too fine a point on it, but

I've taken Nov. 2 and 3 off of work. Me and Mr. Cuervo have plans.

[GiovanniC]

20. Depends on Who Wins

For Kerry, I'll stay sober so I can remember the moment always.

If it's Bush, I'm getting plastered until 2008 or we all die in a nukular explosion, whichever comes first.

[Straight Shooter]

21. I'll be so high on happy endorphins from the rush of Kerry winning

that I won't need booze. :)

[Moonbeam_Starlight]

45. HIGH ON LIFE MAN, HIGH ON LIFE!!!!! eom

[RafterMan]

23. Yo ho ho...

I'm going to stock up on Monday in case those old election day liquor laws are still in effect somehow.

[Arugula Latte]

24. Oh hell yes. Copious amounts.

I'm a wine fan, myself.

Kerry wins -- champagne!

Bush "wins"/steals it -- anything with alcohol -- mouth wash, you name it.

[Shadow30]

27. Yes I'm going to drink that night.

n/t

[vixengrl]

28. Why should election night be different from any other night?

*snort* I hope to be toasting Kerry's clear lead before I go to bed early for work the next day, or I fear Mr. Daniels and I will be in for a tense night of it.

[barb162]

29. no way as I want to be totally sober watching the returns

[endnote]

31. But if you do you are like Chimpy. Think about it.

[bettyellen]

39. that's just wrong!

some of us can handle it and bounce back to live another sober day.
no need to call names now.

[0007]

33. I might have one glass of champagne upon hearing junior say,

"I wish you lots of luck President Kerry"

[gauguin57]

34. We're having Frozen Peach Champagne Cocktails -- fabulous!

Frozen Peach Champagne Cocktails

By Food Network's Rachel Ray:

"This recipe is a Bellini-esque slush for grown ups. "

1/4 cup sugar, to rim glasses
1 pint peach sorbet
2 shots Triple Sec, Grand Marnier or Cointreau
Chilled champagne or sparkling wine, to fill blender, 1/3 bottle
Raspberries and 4 springs mint, optional garnish


Place a shallow bowl of water along side a shallow bowl with 1/4 cup sugar in it. Dip 4 cocktail glasses in water, then sugar to rim glass.
Place 4 scoops peach sorbet in blender. Add 2 shots orange liqueur. Fill blender with Champagne to maximum fill line or up to 1-inch from top of blending pitcher. Place cover on blender tightly. Blend until smooth and pour into cocktail glasses, keeping an eye out not to wreck the pretty sugar rims. Garnish with a few raspberries and a sprig of mint and serve.

[blue neen]

50. That sounds like a fantastic drink to toast to our new president!

Thanks for including the recipe! :)

[shivaji]

35. If Kerry wins, champagne, If Kerry loses, 2 double scotch's

[ellie]

36. Is it a Tuesday?

Then I will be drinking anyway.

[umtalal]

37. No.

[crispini]

40. Yes.

Thankfully, I will be working a polling place until 8pm at the earliest. So I probably will not be arriving at a party until 9pm. Thus, the drinking will start a little later. :D

[TexasThoughtCriminal]

41. I already bought my bottle of champagne!

[requiem99]

42. Take a guess...

[Moonbeam_Starlight]

43. No

I'll already be too much of a mess.

No matter what the result, NEXT weekend I will be getting drunker than Cooter Brown.

[Buddyblazon]

46. I'm Irish...I am NOT Catholic...and I DON'T drink.....

I am however a big stoner...so when Kerry wins...I will celebrate with a BIG...FAT...HOOTER!

mmmmmmmmm....spliff.

[AntiCoup2K4]

47. I've already told my office I won't be in on the 3rd......

Was planning for either being hungover from celebrating, or too depressed to get out of bed. Of course if fraud or whatever throws this into extra innings, I don't know what the Hell I'll do. Really don't want to use up my holiday vacation time in early November.

Hopefully it will just be option #1 - getting shitfaced Tuesday night and recovering Wednesday :)

[WillyT]

51. Oh... I'm Pretty Sure I'll Be Lit Like A...

- O - Lantern !!!

:evilgrin:

[HalfManHalfBiscuit]

52. Yo. Sunrise or sunset?

Or both?

[WillyT]

58. LOL... BOTH !!!

:hi:

[TriMetFan]

53. We and some close friends

plan to do the same thing we did when Clinton won against Bush Sr. When Kerry wins on Tuesday night we will pull out 4 bottles of Perrier Jouet Champagne go in our front yard undo the corks and toast God and the Heavens for releasing from the grip of evil.:)

[sampsonblk]

54. Yeah, something cheap

any suggestions?

[nicktom]

55. Yup, I'm afraid so. n/t

[nefarious]

56. I'll open a bottle of Pétrus when I hear Bush*s concession speech

But Boone's Farm will be too good if boy George claims the win.

[bacchant]

60. I had a '74 Petrus

had

[nefarious]

62. Can't say I have one that old

My choices are between 85, 88, or 93. I also have 89, 94, 95, and 96, but I think they'll be too tight and tannic. Have one bottle each of those years, so they are reserved for only truly momentous occasions. Seeing W* conceed the presidency on TV will be one of them (please God, make us drink Pétrus!).

[bacchant]

57. I'm going to drink 'til election night. eom

[Clinton Crusader]

61. Definitely, Ill be Lloyd Bridges in AIRPLANE by 10pm..
