Bristol Palin’s gorilla suit left her in a hairy situation after Monday night’s Dancing with the Stars. With the lowest score of 18, and having looked generally mediocre, with no real improvement to point to, she seemed destined to be eliminated.

Henderson left the show on this classy, uplifting note: “I hope I’ve inspired people to get off their behinds and move and dance and live and enjoy life.”
Did Dancing With the Stars voters get this one right? Or should Bristol Palin have gone home instead? Who are you rooting for now?
