LOS ANGELES -- Full disclosure: I am not in love with either candidate running for president, not even the one I am voting for on November 4, Democratic Senator Barack Obama. I sat down a bit too early to watch tonight’s vice-presidential debate I think. Because shortly after turning on a network that shall remain anonymous, I was immediately annoyed with their talking heads and their lame ass attempts at trying to forecast America’s reaction to the debate. So by the time the debate got underway, I was already in a bad mood. But like tonight’s debate moderator Gwen Ifill, I too can be objective and unbiased.

I am having Sarah Palin nightmares. I dreamt last night that she was a member of a club where they rode snowmobiles and wore the claws of drowned and starved polar bears around their necks. I have a particular thing for Polar Bears. Maybe it's their snowy whiteness or their bigness or the fact that they live in the arctic or that I have never seen one in person or touched one. Maybe it is the fact that they live so comfortably on ice. Whatever it is, I need the polar bears.
