VEEP Debate Bingo
While I’d prefer to see a Harris/Orange Guy II debate – which would be much more fun – we have to play the debates that we are dealt. So when Tim “Coach” Walz takes on JD “Barbecued Cat Lady” Vance this Tuesday we simply must play debate bingo once again. This time, I found two debate cards on the San Francisco Chronicle website.
HERE is Card 1
HERE is Card 2
Just click the links and print the images.
Alternately, you can find these three cards at the League of Women Voters website. They’re a little more serious, but the black and white version is the low-carbon footprint green alternative.
Same rules as before. Find a subject broached and mark your card’s square. Five in a row across, down, or diagonally, and you win. What you win is up to whatever you and your players can agree on.
My suggestion this time is to bet with your old campaign buttons. However, not all buttons are of equal value, so haggling before the debate would be a wise activity.
No way I’m betting my 1960 Kennedy button. That one stays in the family.
CBS has announced that the only fact-checking will be done by the candidates themselves, so that makes the LWV bingo cards a bit problematical.
1magats and drumpf will accuse Walz of abusing Vance, if they haven’t already said so.
2I’m so sorry to miss this one, I’ll have to watch it later this week. There is a new moon, and it will be a cold clear night at Cottonwood Canyon State Park (Condon, OR) so we are off to look at the stars for a couple of nights totally off the grid. Packing base layers, puff jacket, hat, scarf and gloves (43 degree low tonight, 34 tomorrow night). Good luck, Coach!
3No way I will risk my Adlai button (from 1956) on any debate involving Couch Man.
4Didn’t watch it but not good reviews for either candidate. WTF was Walz thinking to say he was becoming friends of school shooters? Seriously? What a let down. He’s got some splaining to do soon.
5After debate polls show Walz won by a wide margin according to Independents. I never watch in real time.
6After last night’s fee blurbs of news it sounds good for Walz. Didn’t see anything else on his “friends with school shooters” comments but plenty of bad JD Vance stuff. Glad they at least fact checked him with follow up questions which of course he wouldn’t answer.
