What about the people at ABC that are using Bristol to boost ratings? The producers of DWTS knew who was going to be eliminated and they could have chosen any of the performers to stand against Brandy in the bottom. They purposely chose Bristol and had the cameras trained to get audience reactions. Controversy = ratings. They also failed to point out that Brandy didn't just get outvoted by Bristol, the supposedly best dancer got outvoted by everybody else too. So if you are seeing things spiral out of control it was done on purpose and not by political junkies. The DWTS producers played this up like a cheap fiddle, and it sounds like you fell for it.

LOL I didn't "fall" for anything. I am not defending Palin (she's a lousy dancer). I am saying that people who are voting for her to get back at the left are using Palin. I can see ABC doing it - it's their job. But here on FR we are supposed to be above using people for our own gratification. Sorry if it bothers you that I have expressed that in words.

I think it’s probably simpler than what you’re saying. She’s being voted because she’s liked? Give the kids some credit even if she isn’t that great of a dance (she’s better than me).

Like her mom said on Sunday on Sarah Palin’s Alaska: “It will get the liberals all wee-wee’d up.” LOL! (post #910)
