As we reported earlier today, for her very first outing on ABC's dance competition series "Dancing with the Stars," Bristol Palin, daughter of former Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin and America's Most Famous Unwed Teen Mom, will do the Cha Cha to "Mama Told Me (Not To Come)."

[Insert your double entendre joke here.]

Here's a preview of the hit Three Dog Night tune from 1970: Music

"The daughter of one of the most controversial political figures ever has hit the dance floor and her first performance was full of attempted sex appeal but not an ounce of skill."

Video on Anti-Palin (petition) site wants feedback on performance.

She is obviously shy. But it was cute.

[McGruff]

Words fail me to describe how low the media will go.

[Bigtigermike]

You forgot to put up the Barf alert from the snarky bit

[RummyChick]

They need to review The Hoff’s number if they want to see bad dancing.

[Extremely Extreme Extremist]

Levi Johnston is human excrement. Bristol is a beautiful attractive woman with an equally beautiful son and he threw it all away for Hollywood sleaze.

Me, I'd be literally balled-and-chained to Bristol. I'd even wear the black-and-white prison stripes and crush rocks.

...not if you are serious on taking up a challenge...the more one gets out and about, the people one works with really get to know the real Bristol (in this case), perhaps not all bad? Got to have guts, knowing how many feel about her mom!

What a coincidence! /s

[Old Sarge]

Cute outfit for a cute girl.

Funny, I thought Barack Obama was one of the most controversial political figures of all time.

[jakerobins]

Ughhh The media will obviously bash the Palin’s any chance they get....

[dalebert]

I was talking about humor of the song..dancing was fine but the outfit was awful.

[RatsDawg]

haha! Reminds me of the old Paul Shanklin Parody on Al Sharpton.

“Mama Told Me Not To Run!”

The rag isn’t called the Washington Compost for nothing.

[fight_truth_decay]

Tom DeLay dancing in the red pants..now that was 'something else'...

[I don't watch the show so am not in tune to all that goes on..I catch clips]

Trivia: Tucker Carlson was the first contestant eliminated in the 2006 season.

Words fail me to describe how low the media will go.

Words fail me to describe how inappropriate Bristol is.

[fight_truth_decay]

Oh..

[dforest]

It wasn’t a brilliant performance. They were actually quite nice to her.

Maybe she will improve if she doesn’t get booted tomorrow.

"dancing was fine but the outfit was awful"

The first outfit was terrible, but when she switched to the red dress, she looked awesome. Of course, the wardrobe people could sabotage her if they wanted to.
