Election Day Time Wasters

Now that you know what time polls close, here are a few ways to kill some time…
Election Day tension can be killer! There’s screaming pundits, swing states, long lines to the polls, election fraud… the nail biting and hard drinking alone could make your nerves shot for the next four years. So why don’t you turn off the TV and put away the blogs for now (we mean the super political blogs, not the porn blogs… there’s no better stress reliever than shooting off a load) and partake in some of our Election Day Time Wasters?

Create Your Own Electoral Map!
Stop waiting for the pundits to give you their analysis on which state will swing which way and start predicting your own forecast. This handy little site lets you click on states and decide how strongly they’re leaning one way or another. You can even view polls to make an educated guess. Get a bunch of friends together to make their maps and then offer a cash or beer prize to the winner!

Play AIRMILF!
Watch out Dick Cheney… there’s a new trigger-happy hunter for VP! Just skip the ads and then get to hunting wolves in a helicopter, just like Sarah Palin. Get a $100 bonus that adds up with every consecutive headshot. But be careful not to kill the antelopes or elks. The spacebar fires the “special weapon” and look out for cash, grenade and bazooka bonuses! In fact, Comedy Central has loads of election-themed games from Joe The Plumber: Layin’ Pipe to Don’t Get Hurt: The No Health Insurance Game. Now we’re having fun, huh?

Click Around Palin’s Presidential Office
God forbid anything happen to McCain if he’s elected president. That would be a gosh darn shame for Sarah Palin, y’know? She’d have to play Commander In Chief and I betcha, it’s harder than it looks. In this funny site, click around Sarah Palin’s Oval Office to see what she’s hiding. Burning books in the closet? Interesting…

Watch Some Election Comedy
Sure there’s international terrorism, institutionalized homophobia, and a worldwide financial crisis, but that doesn’t mean Election Day’s gotta be all long-faced and serious. Stop by any of the four sites linked in the title above to get a good dose of laughter… and we’re not just talking a few minutes worth, but hours upon days. You could find yourself having such a good time, that you’ll forget to check who won. Just make sure you DON’T FORGET TO VOTE, eh?
