According to a recent slide show in the New York Times of the Bloomberg campaign's inner circle, Mayor Mike's leading pollster, Bernard Whitman, traces his lineage back to Count Dracula.

Yes. It all makes sense now.

There's more. Bernie, who is 43, also "Became obsessed with Richard M. Nixon in elementary school. Read his autobiography at age 12." That means he read all about Dick in 1978. After he was impeached and disgraced.

Nice. Nice kid.
