'Dancing With the Stars' Finale with Bristol Palin Mon 8pm Tues-9 Live Thread! VOTE 800-868-3407
WJRT-TV ^ | 11/22/10

Posted on 11/22/2010 3:50:45 PM PST by Dr. Scarpetta

Tonight is the final chance for the three remaining contestants on "Dancing With the Stars" to impress the viewers at home.

As we've seen this season in particular, high scores from the judges may be nice. But, it's the viewers who matter because their votes can make an impact.

Going into tonight's season finale are Jennifer Grey, Kyle Massey & Bristol Palin.

Getting to this point wasn't always a smooth trip. There were some tense moments at the production office for "Dancing With the Stars."

ABC says a white powder in an envelope was delivered to the office this past Friday. It turned out to be talcum powder.

But, before they knew that, hazardous materials officials with the city of Los Angeles, fire department, police and FBI arrived at the studio lot where the ABC show airs.

This comes just days after the shock that viewers have put low-scorer Bristol Palin in the finals of "Dancing With the Stars," while voting off Brandy, who's had some of the highest scores from the judges.

Watch tonight's show at 8 p.m. and the results show Tuesday at 9 p.m. on ABC.

Maybe they did do a Chicago styled sabotage of Bristol.

Read last night that lots of people were unable to vote for Bristol online. They would sign in try and vote and would be told to sign in again. Meanwhile the other two had no similar issues.

Thank you for giving the Left a nervous breakdown by showing them how conservatives can band together when needed

Yes, that happened to me, took about a dozen tries before I got through—cleared my cache and everything but that didn’t help-had to keep trying before finally getting through. Just figured so many people were jamming the ‘lines’, but if the ABC people were doing that on purpose for people voting for Bristol? That’s just sorry! >:-(

Condescension toward someone of my years and experience is evidence of a lack of confidence. What part of “do unto others” don’t you understand? Several people have asked you to allow us a bit of diversion without having to argue with a moderate. My last word before I ask for a reprimand.

Ok, I admit I did not read all 1,000 responses when I read yours. It was just your "tone" that tried to equate an effort to push Bristol Palin to the top on an entertainment television program (of which I have not watched and do not intend to watch), with some kind of "excess" on the part of conservatives that somehow resembles the "excesses" of the left.

To me, that sounded like trying to equate a second grade Halloween party to a weekend at the Delta's on Animal House.

That's not true. I tried getting through on Grey's line and never did.

The phones have been messed up every year and they apologize and promise to get it right next time. Never happens.

Willow gave a statement today to Eonline:

SNIP

"Today I am focusing on a special event—Bristol and [partner] Mark [Ballas]'s appearance in the Dancing With the Stars finals. Nothing said today will take away how proud we are of Bristol and her grit and determination that got her this far," says Willow before turning her attention to the "ridiculous" reports, including the Life & Style story in which a former classmate dishes about her supposed partying habits.

"It is disappointing to see people who claim they know me to sell stories. As for people accusing me of being at a party over a year ago, the accusations are ridiculous. The same people saying this were also the ones attacking my family on Facebook. Unfortunately some people have learned that there are publications that will pay money for stories, no matter how misleading.

"Nevertheless, I recognize that my family has been given a great honor and privilege to make a difference in this country, and even though I am just 16, more is expected of me," she continues. "That being said, I say this to Bristol and Mark (with a hat tip to Lady Gaga)—Just Dance!"

That was very nice of Willow! The tabloids have been trashing this young girl.
