Did Maria Menounos deserve to be voted off DWTS?

i THINK THAT EITHER WILLIAM OR DONALD SHOULD HAVE GONE BEFORE MARIA. KATHERINE IS BY FAR THE BETTER DANCER OF THEM ALL. HOW ABOUT ALL OF MARIA'S INJURIES? WERE THEY ANY MORE ACCCEPTABLE THAN KATHERINE'S BACK INJURY? AND ITS REALLY TOO BAD THAT YOU CAN'T GIVE KATHERINE ENOUGH COURTESY TO MENTION HER NAME. "THE BLONDE" LITTLE MISS O MY BACK HURTS OPERA SINGER, KATHERINE AND MARIA SHOULD HAVE BOTH ENDED UP IN THE FINALS, NOT SOME WIGGLY LATIN "ACTOR" WHO HAS WOMEN AND MEN DROOLING.

It was obvious from the start that Maria and Derek were the the best. However, Len made it clear that he did not care for Maria on Monday's show and that is a shame. Derek's choreography has been outstanding all season and with Maria as his partner they were obviously the best this season. While we may watch the show in coming seasons, it will be with a jaded eye. This show is no longer about dancing talent, it is about who the sponsors and creators want to win. The show has basically gone away from its original intent and is just a show that pleases the anyone with a big following and a good example is Chaz Bono.

They should never have been voted off. Len Goodman was for Katherine from the getgo and this is very unfair. This is a dancing contest not a heart loving contest. They were robbed because they were so so good. I am sad about this. Maria is now a wonderful dancer and Derek is the best on the show

Derek and Maria were definitely the best dancers. Why people vote for any other reason than who is the best dancer is beyond me and takes away from the purpose of the show. Maria was good from the start but became better each week. They should have won and to all of us who know what good dancing is they are the winners.

I disagree. Katherine was an ex. dancer. For some reason people didn't want her to win, no matter how good she was. Did Maria deserve to go, absolutely not. Who then? I think Donald Driver was not performing as good as he had for a couple of weeks now. Like others have said, vote who you think is a good dancer, not because they are good looking, have a big following, etc. That's not what the show is about.
