So, do you think ABC should admit there might have been a voting problem and allow all 4 contestants compete in the finals?
I neither expected nor watched for weight loss from either of them - it's a non issue to me. I value much more the entertainment and performance value they bring each Monday.

I don't think ABC will admit to anything, instead they'll pooh-pooh the notion of any underhanded shenanigans. But the links to the conservatives4Palin websites and their instructions on how to vote 300+ times should raise a few eyebrows. I'm more curious to learn how Sarah Palin will handle the gay slurs her 16 yr. old Willow made either last night or this morning on someone's Facebook page (a person who didn't like that Brandy left and Bristol didn't).

For those of you who are saying Bristol should bow out gracefully, just how is she supposed to do that? Tongues would be wagging about how she's a quitter, just like her mother. The only way Bristol could keep from being in the position she's now in was to decline ABC's offer to do the show in the first place. But who is fool enough to turn down all that money?

I do not want Jennifer to win, however, of the remaining contestants, she is the best dancer. And don't forget, Derek has his own fan base.

Kyle, Kyle, Kyle....still hasn't lost any weight and Lacey looks horrible as a blonde. I'd rather they win over Jennifer and Derek.

ABC got just what they wanted....controversary and ratings. No different from having Kate Gosselin on last season....pique courioisty and increase ratings. It's a ratings game, don't you know.
I was thinking the same thing. I do not like lacey in Blonde, it is not flattering to her at all.

Yes, and whats up with Kyle not toning down, I thought all the dancers lost some sort of weight after dancing all that time, hell, I was going to start dancing to make my little belly even smaller....eek !!!

As hard as Kyle has been dancing, he should've toned down somewhat. He is by far a much better dancer than Bristol and he's fun to watch.

Of the 3 remaining contestants, Kyle and Lacey have my votes. Jennifer is too whiney, Bristol can't dance, Derek has won too many times and should have next season's geriactric contestant and Mark, well, Mark is too kissy face.

Now that's not a nice thing to say!! Just WHO are you calling "free Willey?". One thing for sure, not all the celebrities can get a "Hottee" body thru dancing! Wife and I were absolutely SHOCKED that Brandy got voted off, but Bristol could win and her mom could become "el Presidente' (Spanish for "the President"!! Boy wouldn't we all love both of those things to happen!

I don't know much about politics, so all these posts about tea parties and such don't mean a lot to me. I watch DWTS for the pure entertainment of seeing people dance. I find the dancing very relaxing and enjoy watching something I wish I was able to do. While I've said in previous posts how unfair I think this whole Bristol situation is, there have been instances in the past when others have been voted off before their time. I think ABC is getting just what they want and need. High ratings. Look how many people are so very vested in this whole competition they watch just to see if it will go as they expect or if there will be more surprises or upsets. Still like the show and will probably keep watching as I just enjoy it for the pure entertainment value.

I didn't know who Annie Lennox was by name. My sister was watching with me and filled me in that she was from the Eurythmics. Now, them i remember (Sweet Dreams). She didn't sound the same but not to bad!
