"Just got the official ‘ask’ from ‘Dancing With The Stars’!! Although I am utterly flattered, my initial thought was to decline, as 2-year-old nephew has more rhythm than me, and my two left feet!! What do you think?”
(Former Senate hopeful Christine O’Donnell, in a Facebook message to her 26,000 followers)

A gig's a gig.
My advice:
Pass.
DO IT!
the media wants to turn Christine O Donnell into a controversial kewpie doll, like Bristol Palin but 20 years older and supposedly MUCH wiser
If she succcumbs to tights and sparkles, then there goes her “gravitas” and any hopes of a serious political role
Want to bet the producers will choose “Black Magic Woman” for her first dance gig?
Cringe. Pimping yourself out isn’t honorable and I’m in the mood for some honorable and dignified (and wise) politicians - for a change.
If she decides that dancing like a monkey on tv is just her style then I’m finally convinced that there is nothing she has to offer that I want. (Yes, I donated to her campaign.)
PASS ON IT!
As with Bristol Palin, they want to use your name and political celebrity to pull in viewers.
They will tart you up like a $2.00 slut, give you trashy dance moves and suggestive music for your dances.
They will take your dignity and do their best to give your detractors something to point fun at.
Do it.
