How did Bristol arrange it so that the only phone lines working for the western states registered votes for her? And the boards were lit up with everyone notifying ABC that this was happening and that it wasn't fair--and still ABC let it happen. Not sure whether the Palins and ABC both wanted this to happen on purpose, but that is how Princess Pouting Palin got her votes. Everyone was very surprised that this no talent cow could be safe and the dancers who did much better are being eliminated. Pam Anderson sure called this right! And the other dancers and judges are all starting to complain about why this lousy dancer is still there. Kind of shows you their family values--and Bristol criticizing the judges and even Julianne Moore shows that she is just trailer trash.

The rules are explained regarding salary on Dancing with the Stars: $125,000 for dancing on week one and week two; $10,000 each week for weeks 3 and 4; $20,000 each for weeks 5 and 6; $30,000 each week for weeks 7 and 8; and $50,000 each week for weeks 9 and 10. Then it says that there is a cut in pay for practicing less than six hours daily at the beginning; and then later there is a cut if they do not practice eight or more hours each day. Bristol says in this interview that she is practicing three or four hours a day--and Mark says he is bored doing nothing but watching TV in Arizona -- does this mean that they are taking a cut in pay?

PBS and (I believe) ESPN both put on ballroom dance contests in the past ... all professional dancers. WHAT A YAWN! Expert dancing is NOT what makes this show ... it's the personalities. (The judges need to take a hint here ... without personality ... this show would be a dud too) You go Bristol! BTW ... great shooting!

If Bristol Palin is ever on again I will no longer watch because she is always bad but those fans of her mother always vote for her at the expense of other better dancers!!!

Why didn't Palin get voted off she really is a horrible dancer in fact she shouldn't even have been asked back. Tired of her. Wrong person sent home last nite. Horrible and really not impressed. Get rid of her and her smug ways. Reminds me of the one olympic dancer they had on. Good bye
