I love the MomsRising Bingo card! So glad I was able to FINALLY use it this last presidential debate! Thanks for highlighting it.

We played “palinbingo” for the VP debate – someone had score cards you could print from that website. For the last debate, well, it became clear that whenever someone mentioned “Joe the Plumber” it was time to drink. Frankly, the drinks were coming too fast, so we had to limit it to McCain only!

Bingo idea is hilarious – how about for those who do not like politics turn down the sound on the television and instead play Pink Floyd’s “Dark Side of the Moon.”

Based on the first debate, it might be fun to do a shot every time a candidate says some form of the word “fundamental”!

There are also 2 national non-profit organizations that provide some good election resources for parents: Take Your Kids 2 Vote (http://www.takeyourkids2vote.org/) and Kids Voting USA (http://www.kidsvotingusa.org/)
