An hour of filler, an hour of filler + results and who will choose what dance for which couple.

Let the gaming begin!

I'm stuck with the King/Vilsack debate instead.

I was wrong. Totally filler here, too.

Could be worse. Tomorrow the Boswell/Latham debate is going to preempt Survivor. It won't actually air until Thursday at 2 am!

poor thing

Tonight two must go

Tom thinks Maks will be doing the bar hop later tonight.

Didn't have enough money for college, decided to raise money by tap dancing in the subway.

I like that. Have a ton of respect for anyone who can do what he's doing and loved the tap dancing. I hope he got a ton of money for appearing, from the show and from donations. Very cool of DWTS to showcase him.

Viral Sensation, got an album, doing a medley.

Sabrina and Louie
Helio and Chelsie
Bristol and Mark

Turtle Racing? I think the Palin Kool-aid may be doing permanent damage to Mark.

One couple safe, the other are the remaining bottom two.

Next couple safe is...Bristol and Mark.

*death glare*

Sabrina and Louie, Helio and Chelsie down the stairs.

I can reveal the remaining couple with the lowest total is...

Another former champion falls. Helio and Chelsie.

Seriously?!?!?!

I wish I were joking.

I do think there is some vote splitting between some of the champions. I think they tend to have similar voters so you only get so many that are voting for you.

Bristol has no competitor for votes. The Tea Party ain't voting for anyone else, and neither is vote for the worst (and any vote for the funniest as America had that before VFTW). She has every last one of those votes.

I'm pretty much resigned to her making the finals.

AND

You know ABC had to know this would happen and they wanted someone like her rather than all good dancers people want to watch. They want the drama and the bad dancing.

*sigh*

Ugh, this is awful. So sad for Helio and Drew.

I think the judges have to score Bristol more fairly. She's at least 5 pts. lower than the others.

They may end up doing to her what they did to Cloris --- intentionally scoring her very low to overcome VFTW and, in Bristol's case, the tea party as well.

I suspect the judges have been told not to blatantly underscore Bristol to get her booted off. The worsters and the tea partiers would pitch a conniption fit if the judges obviously underscored Bristol, and maybe somebody bought ABC off to keep Bristol on there a while. So I doubt the judges are as free as they would normally be to get a $hitty dancer off by underscoring her. They have probably been told otherwise.

It doesn't help that Bristol's cutting out of practice to send herself more suspicious envelopes.

WTF?!?!
