The Illinois Tavern Sweep.


No liquor because Rod needed it in New York.

Anonymous · 4 years ago

The "OMB". You buy a shot, Filan hires a consultant to drink it, and Rod calls you a drunk.

The "JBT": Pilsner Beer, grenadine, and a shot of grain alcohol set on fire.


The "Obie": Obie milk, mexican Kahlua, with a shot of Angostura bitters hidden inside and shot a Pepto Bismol as a chaser.

The ROD-A-Rita: The tequila isn't bad. As far as presentation goes, it looks good. But it will take about 90 minutes for you to get it.


The Madigan Manhattan: Short and Strong



The Oberweis/Cuervo Combo: Wouldn't you like to see that combination?



The Rauschenberger Royal: Not as strong as it looks, but totally mixed up.

OK, maybe this was a poor choice of questions. We already have two deletions, people. Slow down and think.

The Lisa. You sacrifice lots of ingredients to make it look good, and after one you drink it you become very arrogant and think you are better than dozens of more qualified candidates to be the AG!
Or the Blagoavitch all Jack Daniels garunteed to make you a pissed off mean drunk!

The Ryan.


Any ingredients you choose, but those who drink it always lose.

A champayne should certainly be named after Judy. She's so bubbly.

How about the "political consultant"


Vodka and prune juice

Rich, the two you deleted obviously came from the same guy since they were sent within a minute of each other. They should count for one deletion.

Don't shut it down yet, Rich. I have some real ones coming. Geez, guys, have fun with this one; don't take yourselves so seriously.

The "RODley-Temple": Lot's of Fruit and no Buzz. Afterall, isn't he a little too young to be a responsible drinker anyway?

Can you post a final list and let us vote on the ones we like best? Maybe send the list to the politicians?

Angry Jolietan · 4 years ago

The Anti-Rod: Red Bull, mixed with Fruit Punch Hi-C and Jolt. Served only to little kids to protest our Governor's decision to get rid of junk food in Junior Highs.

The Dunkin - a drink sostrong that just having the same name leaves you babbling nonsensically.

The Blago: A bottomless drink (aka all you can drink). How low can it go?

IB Topinka- a filthy fake red cup of Schaefer beer, served w/ 2 iron marbles on the bottom.

Jeepers folks... I think the idea of this type of game is to cinge, but never burn.


Just have some fun, but don't be a creep.

Guiness and Irish Whiskey for everyone all night - just like they serve at the best party in Springfield -the Sullivan Caucus.

Anonymous · 4 years ago

Cinging and never burning seems to be the perspective of which side of the isle you're on as well as how it benefits your own job. Or should I say the mental manifestation one has about job security based on personal politics rather than job perfomance.

The Hoffman


1 pint of beer poured into a 32oz glass so there's room for all that head.

Rich Miller · 4 years ago

LOL. Tucker, that was hilarious. I just called Huffman about it.

The Rauschy- just Rum and Coke- because beer is yucky and RC is sweet like candy!

The Hot Roddy - costs $15 million, looks great when you first order it, but leaves a bad feeling in your stomach once you've tried it. Good news is that there is so little to it, it's not filling.

Bluefish · 4 years ago

The Blagotini - 1 part rotgut Serbian liquor, 1 part grenadine, 1 part Red Bull, 2 parts hot air. Stirred by a highly paid spin doctor and served in chilled rose colored glasses. Garnish with a peanut butter and banana stuffed olive.


On the house. Your kids and grandkids will pay the bill for it later.

The Rauschenberger:


Prior to drinking it, you're considered a brilliant master of the budget, but once you drink it, you're rendered a hapless statewide candidate that leaves you looking like John Cox.

High Five Me - Seagram's Seven on ice...named after whomever the Repubs eventually run against GRod because none of them will pull enough Republicans together to outvote all the pulled-together Democrats...so high five Rod now, unless he loses in the primary it's over already.

The "Just some ice water, please."
Also known as vodka on the rocks. Indispensable to many a legislator at the end of session and a handful from gavel to gavel. All the alums of legislative staff, secretaries, and even worldly pages know this concoction. No names in the interest of discretion.
