So now Dancing With the "Stars" has invited Christine O'Donnell to "dance"

[Bluebear]

No crystal balls here - former Tea Party candidate Christine O'Donnell is instead turning to Facebook to decide the fate of her "Dancing With the Stars" status.

O'Donnell posted excitedly on her Facebook page Monday that the show's producers had approached her to be on the dancing competition.

"I just got the Official 'Ask' from Dancing With The Stars !!" she wrote. "Although I am utterly flattered, my initial thought was to decline, as 2 year old nephew has more rhythm than me, and my two left feet!!"

The post garnered plenty of attention, with fans both urging and discouraging the conservative Republican from taking the (excessively sequined) plunge.

"One part of me says go for it. Another part of me says don't because of what the leftists in the entertainment industry will try to do," one commenter noted, adding: "BTW if you do go for it, you got my vote :)"

[CTyankee]

[6000eliot]

and right-wing politics.

[Frustratedlady]

Did she ever settle her financial issues with campaign funds?

[Warren Stupidity]

Sick society...... sick

[RandySF]

16. DWS is becoming a repository of failed conservatives.

[CTyankee]

34. Now, THERE'S the truth here! I wonder if the producers thought of this.

Is THIS their idea of great TV? If so, they are in deep doodoo.

Oh well, let 'em do it. I don't have to watch. Neither do you....

[Uzybone]

17. Stupid, RW rehab show

[flvegan]

[Raine]

Good one! :thumbsup: :hi:

[demmiblue]

22. On the positive side, Jennifer Grey was absolutely inspirational for older women. n/t

[Mojeoux]

27. Also positive........... awesome dance professionals showcased

who show everybody how it's done!!!!

[City Lights]

23. Unless she's the dancer half of the equation, Disney has an odd definition of "star."

:thumbsdown: to the mouse.

[joeybee12]

24. Stinks, but she ran for something, all Bristol did was sleep with Mommy's boyfriend...

and then get pregnant.

[classof56]

29. Can she use her broom?

God, what a joke!

[Johonny]

30. seems like a good choice

conservatives have generally shown they like to watch TV a lot. They also seem to like to watch this show a lot. So it's a no brainer programing move. Do I watch this show. No. So I care not a crap who is on it.

[ThatsMyBarack]

31. They should invite Victoria Jackson....

To "dance" on the show. :puke:

Of course, I'd avoid this show TWICE as much as I've done before!

[spanone]

32. media rewards insanity

[Faux pas]

35. tucker, delay, palin and now o'donnell???? Gag me with an

tea bagging elephant.

[Canuckistanian]

37. They should call it "Dance With the Failed Republicans"

Next week - a pas de deux with Rick Santorum and Newt Gingrich...

[Radical Activist]

38. So what are your thoughts on Obama's DOMA decision?

You write so much about GLBT issues that I was surprised at your silence. Lose interest?

[Radical Activist]

39. Less than two weeks ago

you really cared about Obama dropping the defense of DOMA.

So I'm just a little surprised that I haven't seen any posts from you celebrating Obama's decision to do exactly what you wanted. Lose interest?

[Rex]

40. Fine. Who cares? There are a zillion flunky reality tv programs to watch

and no one cares about any of them, people just watch for 'rubbernecking car wreck' value. Like watching 'Cheaters' or 'The Jerry Springer Show'. Just because someone makes it to the TVEE Tubes, doesn't mean it is a good thing overall. Just look at how Tom Delay worked out, or not. :rofl:

[Scurrilous]

41. Kick

:kick:

[Warren DeMontague]

42. Okay, but she has to dance to "I Touch Myself" by the DiVinyls.

Fair is Fair.
