Bristol showed dignity, grace, poise and represented her family so nicely.
Thanks for the thread every week I really enjoyed the Mondays and Tuesdays.
How does someone diagnosed with a slipped disc in the morning dance a winning performance the same evening?!?!?
Or maybe not!
My blood is still boiling from the 'disruptors' on this thread today.
Not fond of not nice folks!
I'll miss this great group, though. Being in CA is hard to particip8 but it was always fun to read.
I hope the Palins are aware of the support on FR.
They only took 3 of my phone calls and then I got the over the limit recording.
The only way I can stand to watch a show like this is to tivo it and fast forward through all the pap, and believe me, it is full of that.
If you do that and just watch the dances, it isn’t too bad.
I’ll probably skip it next year unless they snag somebody I’m really interested in.
There was something about Jennifer that really turned me off; her expressions, her phony dramatics, I don’t know.
But I expected her to win.
Now that it’s over, I’m kinda glad it ended as it did. Bristol made a great impression, showed class, was sweet and gracious and ended up being a pretty good dancer, much better than Kyle who had the showmanship but mainly just shimmied.
She’s probably safer than if she’d won.
Do we have someone starting a Sarah’s ALaska thread?
WHen we visited my aunt at the assisted living home, I mentioned to the nurse that she had enjoyed her visit to Alaska and the residence might enjoy watching it.
She said several of her friends had told her about it...That the program certainly was changing people’s opinion of Sarah.
Later in a local store got the same message. That’s after two weeks....Think what eight weeks, plus the book tour, plus a couple of Mark and Bristol’s snap shots from the poppaRATz in the entertainment mags. There have already been a few at restaurants and clubs where Mark was performing...If they are seen together after the show they’ll be an item whether they want to or not.
Still waiting for that quick step! ;~)
I disagree.Bristol carried this on her own.Our little votes pale compared to her fan base,regular young people.They identified with her and voted for her and she stood on her on her own merit.
Yes, thanks for the memories.
But glad they are just memories now. It’s been fun, tho.
An excellent point. I didn’t think about him either!
OK, I’ve just started watching on the left coast, and have avoided anything online, but I just have to say: W.T.F. was that!!! Freaking Jennifer, hurt yet again, but going to dance through it. There is NO audience voting, so why the heck did we even need to hear about it?? To justify the two sets of perfect scores the Judges are going to give her tonight, as if we didn’t expect it anyway???
I think Bristol is like her dad and just doesn't feel comfortable with PDA. Although Todd did say he'd like to learn to dance. (Might come in handy in the WH).
She says they are friends. (Good place to start.) She has had to trust him to allow him to touch her in all the places the dancing required. She said he is very professional. Think of the talk if she didn't make those statements.
Bad girl’s night out.Catchy-hehehhehehe Bad Girl’s Bad Girl’s watcha gonna do,watcha gonna do when they come for you.Since the media is so interested in chat threads-Hehehehehhehe

Well the bubblegum crowd is happy because Bristol lost but not happy Jen won.
“I’m the romantic that has them two stepping down the aisle.”
I tell you, that would be an amazing love story. The media and the public would just eat it up! I’d love to see Bristol find a good fellow, that Levi is really a misguided person. I hope one day HE can get it together.
I was actually pretty impressed with every little bit I saw of the ongoing cast of DWTS. I’m amazed at how much the professionals do. I had no idea that they choreographed the routines and trained their partners.
And I was just wowed with the final “instant” dance from everybody.
I remember on “so you think you can dance” they said the Cha-cha was about the hardest ballroom style dance to do, so to make one up in 1/2 an hour, and they all did so well with it, I was really impressed!
I thought Bristol just came off as a lovely girl. I think she really rose to the challenge and has made a good impression on anyone who is not obsessed with hatred for her mother and her family.
And Kyle seemed like a very nice fellow too. I had to google him to see who he was, then I realized I could just have asked my 9 year old niece!
It does seem like the least jaded made it to the finals, that was nice.
Although I must say I thought that Margaret Cho did OK in her bit, and I’d heard she was pretty bad.
The number of poor losers on this thread is amazing. A lot of you people should be ashamed.
I did say she was the best dancer. If fans hadn’t been involved, Brandy would’ve given her a run for that mirror ball. But, unlike Bristol and Kyle, Jennifer didn’t really improve much from her first weeks, and part of the celebrity dancing bit was the journey from inexperience to what the professional dancers could get out of the celebrities. She made missteps that weren’t counted against her and her experience by the judges. But she was the best dancer of the three tonight, and she deserves credit for her performances, for her age and whatever her physical problems were. Lots of hard work from all the dancers, good and bad. Couldn’t do any of it myself.
I have been so busy I could not participate much, but loved to lurk and get the flavor of the show.
Sarah and Bristol Palin are brave women, and a fine example for all of us.
To step out of our comfort zones, and to speak up about important issues, regardless of the haters.
