Suggestions For Upcoming Debate Bingo

Posted by TechyDad on October 3, 2008 under Fun, Politics

Palin Bingo was such a success (984 Palin Bingo cards created) that I decided to modify it for the upcoming Presidential Debate.  I’ve stripped the list of “Palin-specific” words (like Trig, Todd, Alaska, etc).  I’ve also added some Obama-McCain words (“Change” and “Hope”) as well as some words that my wife and I can’t believe we missed.  (How could we not have included “Main Street” or “Economy”?)

I’m sure there are words that I’ve still missed, so here is your chance to contribute.  If your word is accepted, you win a Free Debate Bingo board.  (What?  I’m giving them away for free anyway?  Shhh… Some people might think it’s a prize!  ;-) )  The only rule to word selection is that it had to be something that one (or both) candidate might realistically say.

Also, it can’t be a word that I already have.  Here’s my list so far:

Bridge to No Where, Russia, Maverick, Alaska, Washington outsider, Pro-Life, Oil, Obama, Clinton, Community Organizer, Executive Experience, McCain, Taxes, Drill, Pork Barrel, Earmarks, Wall Street, Canada, Media, Conservative, Foreign Policy, Georgia, United Nations, Iraq, Iran, Bail-out, Terrorist, Afghanistan, Al Qaeda, Bin Laden, Ahmadinejad, Polls, President Bush, Lobbyist, Washington Insider, 9-11, Putin, Reformer, Main Street, Economy, Meltdown, Military, Negotiations, Washington Outsider, Energy Independence, Biden, Palin, Hope, Change, Liberal

So let’s hear those Bingo Words/Phrases everybody!

A Little VP Debate Fun

Posted by TechyDad on October 1, 2008 under Fun, Politics

During Rosh Hashana, my wife and I were talking about the upcoming VP debate.  We were laughing about how someone came up with a Palin Drinking Game and were convinced that one would inevitably wind up drunk way too quickly.  So we came up with another idea: Palin Bingo!

A few (ok, 73) phrases later and some quick coding and we have a workable Palin Bingo!  Just load the page and print out a card.  Refresh the page and, since the phrases are chosen at random, you’ll get a whole new card.  So print them out for friends and family and let’s play!

Play Palin Bingo!

BTW, there appear to be other Palin Bingo games out there.  I happen to think this one is the best.  Then again, I’m biased since I wrote this one.
