DWTS Season 11 enters its eighth week of competition tonight (Nov 8) and thus, the Bristol Palin enigma continues.
'Bristol the Pistol' has taken aim & shot down better qualified & much more fiercely talented candidates in her quiet wake to win the coveted mirror ball trophy.
But the burning question remains: how does Palin continue to linger on the competition & stir the ire of many DWTS fans who view the show as a talent (not popularity) contest?
While continually scoring at or near the bottom of the Judge's leader board since the onset of Season 11, Palin has somehow beat out competitors who have outscored and outperformed her, i.e., Florence Henderson, Rick Fox, and even Mike The Situation Sorrentino who exited the show at Week 4.
But what is really at the crux of the Bristol Palin matter is not the fact that Palin continues to receive enough votes to stay on DWTS. That part is evident.
The real question is why & where those votes come from. That is, are those votes generated by Sarah Palin supporters, or are they cast because people really like Bristol?
Hopefully, it's because people truly like 'Alaska's Favorite Daughter', find her refreshing and just want to see her win because of who she is.

Goodnight!
Feel bad for him.
Bristol could come out next week and be perfect and I would bet she gets really bad scores. No matter what.
But what did he apologize for? What did he do?
Yes, I went over and checked during the guest singer.
He really is!
Ya serious? WOW, they are making a fuss about someone not being voted off a dance show..you should tell them to get a life LOL..I love watching progressives heads explode, its actually fun. I always wanted to know what was inside of one, now I know..nothing but stinky cheese
oh? do tell
I agree with that. The judges have been stymied by us...:)
The judges have been stymied by us...:)
..and I’m enjoying it:-)
LOL! You can’t talk to a liberal ever...
You are so very welcome Carole!
Aren’t we all...:)
I think that Bristol will pick up votes from some of Kurt’s conservative fanbase next week.
I’m thinking the DWTS folks thought they were getting someone like a Tom Delay....I bet they had no idea what affection there is in the heartland for Palin and her family.
I’ll vote for every Palin I can as many times as I can. I admire the Teens grit. She is standing up, speaking out and moving forward...... It is great to see a child like Bristol find her wings and watch they fill for the first time.
He is a wonderful,Godly human being and a great role model. This is sad,but someone had to go. Too bad Jennifer and Maks could not go and leave Derek and Brandy as partners. Brandy should win the MBT.
Bristol gets another $30,000, that will go a long way for her College Education.
That’s very possible, and if it happens, Joyless Behar will spend an hour on the View talking about it.
Of course not, liberals can’t stand hearing the truth..they take the term “stubborn as a mule” to a whole new extreme
I actually feel the same way. You are so right!!
My old friend from high school forward has turned out to be a liberal. We always got along, until Obama came along. The problem is that she loves obamacare. I cannot get through to her, and she told me not to send her any e-mails on the topic.
