Election night drinking games
Not invited to any of the big events around the city tonight to enjoy the election? Relax. Have your own election party.
There are the ever-popular drinking games.
Every time a pundit says, ``This election is a mandate on President Bush'' have a drink. Every time you hear: ``This race is too close to call'' or ``It's going to be a long night,'' have a drink. At that rate, you should be passed out by 11 p.m. and not worry about who won or lost, just getting rid of the hangover tomorrow and making it to work.
Another way to spend the evening is watching political movies.
For the true believers, there is always ``Mr. Smith Goes to Washington.''
Cynics can watch ``Power,'' an underrated movie about modern political consultants that still plays well.
And, for the true-life conspiracy buffs, there is always ``All the President's Men.''
