DWTS: 5 Reasons Bristol Palin Should Have Been Voted Off Weeks Ago!
If you are like many other countless Dancing with the Stars watchers you may be surprised nay shocked that Bristol Palin not only lasted this long on the competitive dance show but that she made it to the finale. Apparently somebody out there believed she deserved to be there, is it the Palin fans, tea partiers or just some very sympathetic viewers? But it looks like there were enough of them that fit into one of those categories that she survived to dance yet another day. But should a triple threat talent like Brady go home instead of her? Yeah, I think not. Here are 5 reasons why Bristol should have been voted of weeks ago.
The show is called Dancing with the Stars. Not Dancing with Daughter of Polarizing Politicos. She is just famous for being Sarah Palin’s daughter and for having a child at a very young age. She really had no business being on the show in the first place.
Bristol is awkward and incredibly self-conscious. She is not actually an entertainer. Bristol is doing something completely out of her comfort zone, which is commendable, but she can’t, even with lots of coaching, seem to let herself really go and get into character.
She has continually had some of the lowest scores week after week, yet she continues to stay. Don’t these scores mean anything?
Dancing with the Stars should be about fun not politics. And although there is no real campaigning going on, seeing the very politically active Sarah Palin in the front row over the course of the season has made some people cringe and others applaud her political presence on the set. But is this really the venue for that?
And last but not, the ape suits. See video below.
ARE YOU KIDDING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! BRANDY VOTED OFF AND BRISTOL STILL ON, UNBELIEVABLE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
How did this show get to be about politics instead of entertainment?!!!
Here is what so many of you are missing: A HUGE number of Americans, Republicans, Democrats, and Independents, alike, are voting for Bristol Palin because they can relate to being told they are not enough. Everybody keeps talking about how she is not skilled enough, she not thin enough, she’s not emotive enough…but nobody ever talks about her EFFORT! Nobody seems to care how hard she has been working. Well, lots of Americans can relate to that. In my opinion, Bristol Palin is THE PEOPLES’ DANCER! And when she dances, she is dancing for all of us Americans who have been told we are not enough…that we’re not pretty/handsome enough, that we’re not smart enough, that we’re not talented enough, that we’re not thin enough, etc. If I have my way, Bristol Palin will win the whole thing! GO BRISTOL PALIN, THE PEOPLES’ DANCER!!!
Its all based on votes. How can we say the voters are wrong?

Bristol is not the “people’s dancer”.. she is not a dancer at all. Save DWTS — Vote Jennifer and Derek
Sorry Bristol – you have proven yourself to be an achiever – but not a dancer who rates competing in the finals. Do the right thing – step down. Voters were not even able to cast their vote Monday night. I hope if they were successful, they voted based on the talent displayed, not judging who should be homecoming queen.
I am so happy we get to keep seeing Bristol dance. She is appealing to so many Americans because there is nothing fake about her. Watching Brandy all I can see is a boob job and years of training to be a star. Jennifer Grey-same thing. Jennifer is a professional dancer. She had so much training for Dirty Dancing and has continues to dance. I’m ashamed that jaws dropped of those working on the show because they have forgotten the premise of this show. To put NON-Dancers through the paces of LEARNING how to dance. Bristol has endeared herself to millions because she has learned how to do it. I shed no emotion for Brandy getting voted off because she should not have been on the show in the first place. Kyle Massey has not had the tough road as Bristol because not only is he a trained entertainer from childhood used to showing off in front of people but he hasn’t had to learn how to dance on high heels!
What a JOKE of a show!!!! I thougth this was to be a talent show, not a popularity show!!! How the likes of a Bristol Palin was a considered a STAR is beyond belief!!! How could the promoters of this show select the likes of her! STAR???? Star of what?????
Disgusting!!!!
I tried to call several times to cast my vote for Jennifer and could not even get in to vote!!!
If BRISTOL wins, even though I have been a fan for several seasons, this will be MY LAST time to watch!!
Utterly disgusting!!!!

1.) She is not a star..she is the daughter of a politician.
2.) She can’t even lift her foot of the ground.
3.) She looks awkward dancing.
4.)This is a competition…not a “Who is the most improved award?”
Plain and simple
And people..stop using the excuses “she deserves to win because she has not been an entertainer before in her life and it’s not fair cause everyone else has had some experience”…cause isn’t that the point of dancing with the STARS…its not our fault that they put her on the show and considered her an entertainer..when she is not
I will never watch this show again
“Dancing With the Stars”…what does that title imply? Bristol Palin is NOT a star, she is the daughter of a politician…so now DWTS is a polictical forum? I am livid that Bristol is in the finals, sure…she might be a nice girl, but that’s not what this show is about! Stars, that’s the key…she keeps using the fact she isn’t a star as a “I deserve to win” point. I’m just so blown away I don’t know if I even want to watch anymore. Brandy was graceful, smooth and elegant…the fact that she got voted off instead of the mechanical Bristol is a travesty. I am really questioning the show now.
Bristol deserves the win over Brandy because the people voted that way. Political or not the people voted. Just as some of you say that you will never watch the show again, that is your choice just as Bristol has become Americas choice! A choice you cannot change!
I can’t believe some of the comments supporting Bristol as a dancer. This young lady CAN’T DANCE!!!
Umm – just how many seasons of DWTS have most of you even watched? This show features people of “pop culture” – doesn’t have to be an “entertainer” in any way. Secondly, historically, the “best” dancer rarely wins; its usually the most popular dancer. Remember how long that Mr P or whatever his name was voted back? He had the grace of Frankenstein – yet returned week after week. The “favored” person – regardless of skill – advances – and wins. Swallow your bitter pills left leaning liberal cry babies. I personally could care less about who “wins” or not – as I’ve come to expect the popularity contest based on the very first season. I just watch it because its fun to see people out of their element work so hard to truly perform. I give’em all credit for even taking a shot at the competition. And I find it pathetic – and typical – that so many people have to “write” and publish commentary about how “wrong” and/or “fixed” it is for the Palin girl. Get a life losers. You sound French.
Those of you who take the “star” literally in Dancing With The Star are naive. This show has never been about “stars”, nor an election of the best dancer. It IS a popularity contest. Look at the record of EVERYONE who has been a contestant, and look at ALL of the past winners – and you’ll see for yourself.
Saying someone needs to be a “star” on DWTS is like saying only Rock & Roll bands/artists should be admitted to the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame and Museum. The truth is – there are more non-rock related admissions to that museum than there are rock related. Its ridiculous – but the way things are.
