Monday Morning--what's going on?

Well, it's officially Fall here in Chicago, but apparently it's still pretty warm out in LA, where Dancing With The Stars is filmed.  Check out Derek Hough after a long (and intense?) rehearsal... Ugh, he's cute.

This really comes as no surprise because all parties involved are uneducated idiots: Heidi Montag endorses Sarah Palin (and therefore John McCain).  Duh.

According to one of her cast-mates, Misty May-Treanor is definitely leaving the cast of Dancing With The Stars.  Brooke Burke let it slip this morning on a radio show.
