Everyone's favorite comedian, Sarah Palin, will be going head-to-head with Joe Biden tomorrow night for what's sure to be the most watched VP debate in history. There are some pre-debate choices to be made, however. You can choose to view it in the solitude of your own apartment, shivering in a dark corner hugging your knees, or you can surround yourself with others, under the influence of many drinks, at a bar near you. If you choose the latter, here are some options:
Here's the list and interactive map of where you can watch with those mostly supporting the Obama/Biden ticket (about 70 spots in a 10 mile radius of the 10002 zip). The McCain/Palin website only lists 3 debate watching events with the same search specifications, so looks like any Republicans out there will be acting as the away team. The NY Young Republicans also note an event, but with a last minute venue change that's not yet been determined--however, they have received "over 85 RSVPs!" The Young Dems will be partying it up over at Bourbon Street Bar & Grill, where chef Tommy Hines, friend of Gothamist, will be frying alligator liberally.
Our picks: Galapagos, who aired the Obama/McCain debate in 3-D, will be giving the VPs some 2-D screen time (details), and the Bell House has actually moved the bands playing tomorrow night around the debate so folks can come watch it on the big screen. If you're Manhattan-bound, the Sixth Ward is offering up a guilt-free party, where you can also sign up to help register more voters.

The LGBT Center at 208 West 13th Street (between 6th and 7th) is also hosting a debate watching party. At 6:30pm, we will have representatives from the campaigns speaking, and then at 9pm we will show the debates. Free munchies and pizza, and beer and wine for only $2!! Come check it out, and bring your friends!

Well, if Joe comes up with the FDR-on-TV-in-1929 gambit again, that'll be a laff riot, too.

I make sure to flex my face muscles so they don't hurt to much after I laugh.

I will need to drink very large amounts of hard liquor to be able to look at and listen to Joe Biden.
I will need to whack myself in the head with a blunt object to be able to look at and listen to Sarah Palin.
Also, check out the Storefront for Art and Architecture in SoHo. They're projecting the debate on the side of their building on Kenmare Street. They're also unveiling the White House Redux exhibit, the results of an international competition to re-imagine the White House...
