So, you guys-I know that with the Halloween and Hurricane (parties) and ALL.THOSE.RYAN.LOCHTE.TWEETS.TO.KEEP.UP.WITH it was (almost) easy to forget that the ELECTION 2012 happens 6 days from now. 6.DAYS. Naturally-we are having a party for it. A really amazing party. Because, as you know-no matter what happens, you WILL want to be drinking.
Tickets are a bargain $10 in advance, and you should definitely get them because they involve ALL OF THIS:

NOW, WE ALSO LOVE YOU ETC, so we have a pair of tickets to give away to this too. TO ENTER TO WIN-let us know who would be your write-in candidate for president AND WHY. Cool? Cool. We will notify the winners by COB Thursday.
Obviously my serious write-in would be Ellen. Because she is a saint. And everyone would just not have to go xmas shopping ever again, because she’d just give everyone in the country tons of cool stuff. And also, you know, she’d be like super cool to military folks, and deaf people, and people who are just generally down on their luck. She’s the best, you guys. Though her VP might be Taylor Swift, and I can’t decide if that would be awesome, or not.
My write-in candidate for president would be Michelle Obama, with Elmo as her running mate, because really, who’s going to vote against that ticket?
My write in candidate would be Oprah since she’s one of the most powerful women in America, second to Michelle Obama. She’s one of the reason Obama won the presidency!
I mean Clearly Martin Sheen would be the best president ever right?
HILLARY. Because that bitch knows how to get shit done and look swag doing it.
My write in would have to be Big Bird. Just because Big Bird has gotten so much attention and fame recently. And of course…Elmo would be the VP pick.
Beyonce would be my write-in, because the White House (and the world in general) could always use more sass. Running mate would be Lisa Frank, because the posters would be amazing and what else is she doing anyway.
My write-in candidate for president would be Vermon Supreme. He has said that, if elected President of the United States, he will pass a law requiring people to brush their teeth and he promises a free pony for every American.
would have to go with Rachel Maddow – not because she’s super super liberal, which is also cool, but because she would not take ANYONE’S shit. I mean, come on:

I’d write-in a look-a-like for [insert current standing president because this vote is timeless] who makes appearances at used car sales events but has a heart of gold. He has the experience, because he was able to sub for the real president while he was in a coma brought about by extra-marital boning with aplomb while also sexing the neglected FLOTUS, Sigourney Weaver. He gets my vote because with the help of Charles Grodin and a roast beef sandwich, yes we can balance this budget.
Daniel Day-Lewis as Abraham Lincoln because, with that kind of painstaking preparation Mr. Lewis took to get into the role, I have few doubts that he would know what to do in that seat better than most. Due to his lack of foreign policy background, for obvious reasons, I’m going to say Hil for veep. Bill can come too.
