Demon Alcohol

You'll need this post if your Election Night Drinking Game made you take a sip every time you heard or saw any of the following campaign coverage clichés:

• A hologram.
  
• "Narrative."
  
• That awkward pause at the beginning of the hour when they're about to call a race(s) but mistimed the graphics.
  
• "Would you have thought that just X months ago we'd be here talking about Y?"
  
• "Wave."
  
• "1994."
  
• Stirring orchestral intros and outros.
  
• A Fox News pundit/anchor tying an obscure House race result to Iran policy.
  
• "Referendum."
  
• "This isn't about me."
  
• "Tonight we start to take America back."
  
• "Disconnect."
  
• "Let's go to the map."
  
• Any and all missed cues.
  
• "Thanks, Chuck."
  
• "Tsunami."
  
• "Speaker Boehner."
  
• "Looking ahead."
  
• Overwhelmed TV correspondents who can't hear the anchor over the din of the election party they're covering.
  
• "Pocketbook."
  
• Bill Bennett looking pleased-as-punch.
  
• "Stayed at home."
  
• "Well, [Anchor's name], voters sent a message loud and clear tonight."
  
• "Hard-fought."
  
• Contradictory turnout reports within 30 mins of each other.
  
• "Day of reckoning."
  
• Any time Wolf Blitzer continues to talk past the point when the average human being would need to take an in-breath.
  
• If you look in the mirror and see a Democrat.
