I’m surprised Dems are the better tippers. Their two big groups, women and blacks, are terrible tippers (I say this as a woman and an erstwhile bartender and waitron). Maybe all the fat-cat Dem PI attorneys get drunk and throw their wallets on the bar?

My observations are similar but I would disagree on the tipping issue. The only customers I see that don’t tip at all are liberals and mostly women. Maybe its just because I tend bar at an American Legion Post.

BS. Only if it is with someone else’s money.

“have better pick-up lines”

I don’t consider proposals for sex between fags to be interesting pick up lines.

“...and give better toasts.”

Doubtful. D’s are good at coveting, but really poor at congratulating someone on achievement. Unless they are some sort of sexual deviant (see previous point).

“Republicans heavily outweigh Democrats when it comes to ordering their drink straight up.”

This one I believe. Fruity drinks that are really dessert don’t really count.

Dems are truly pathetic. And it shows in every aspect of life.

Interesting stuff, thanks for posting it.

Wonder why the GOP’ers prefer the stiffer drinks?

Who is more likely to order a fruity (pink) drink? Democrats 58%, Republicans 34%

I’d venture that democrats like drinks with more ingredients and republicans with less.

How do you “rate” pick up lines? Are people ASKED their party affiliation? Are the bartenders busy listening to the lines customers are using?

I guess these must be slow bars, I generally see bartenders too busy to catch any of the conversations going on around them enough to participate in a “study” as to “who said what” and “what their politics” are.

What are the politics of the women who are reportedly more taken by Democrat pick-up lines? Is it assumed that just because they “hook up” after meeting in a bar, that they share the same politics? Could this also be a reason why Republican men aren’t using “hot” pick up lines in bars?

Wonder what is considered a good pickup line at a Dem Convention?

“Hey babe, wanna earn $50 the old fashion way?”

So let me get see if I get this straight “DC’s best bartenders can identify political preference by cocktail selection and bar behavior.”

If they use the parton’s behavior to determine their political preference? That sounds like they just associate whatever behavior the view postively or negatively based on their own political leanings.

What a moronic poll. If you want to know about patrons political leanings and their behavior you would poll them and not the bartender. If you want to know about bartenders you poll them.

Democrats better tippers? BS!

I’ve owned restaurants for thirty years and most of the Democrats I have had the “pleasure” to serve were only generous when they used other people’s money. On their own dime they were ten percenters at best.

I’ll agree with the Republicans (well, conservatives) preferring their drinks straight up, although many of the younger ones are starting to go for the fancy mixed drinks.
I vehemently disagree that liberals are better tippers. The few I have observed seldom tip, and when they do it ain’t much. Maybe if I hung out where customers were on an expense account I’d see something different.

Well, of course, because they submit it on their expense report.

Crown royal on the rocks. And I tip well as long as I get good service.
