Most pols are content to be drunk with power.
I guess Adam the IVth wanted to do it the real
old fashioned way....pour it down his gullet!
Well....if a pol can't hold his liquor
maybe he shouldn't hold office either!
Judge Roy Bean could drink anybody under the table and still hold court....that's because he was a self respecting Texican (Texan) probably nursed as a child on 100+ proof corn liquor !
If any of us were to drink at work, we'd be fired.
Well, it's not as if the Assemblyman took a grandmother back to his campaign office and had his way with her.
How about a match-up with State Senator Sabini? A game of drunken "chicken" perhaps on the Triborough Bridge?
once saw an old movie about an elected official who could only make good speeches when he was crocked.

Yes, I believe it was titled;
"The Ted Kennedy Story"
The mayor of Jersey City makes speeches when he's plastered all the time.
He also has the habit of wandering out of his house naked late at night, when he's "confused".

His mother was peurto rican. His father had about 3 or 4 different families
