Will Bristol Palin's Failure to Vote Mean Bad Things for 'Dancing'?

Meghan McCain isn't the only Republican
furious that
Bristol Palin didn't vote last week in the election -- momma Palin is also angry, but not for the reason you might think.
"Sarah is convinced that Bristol may have blown any chance she may have had of winning 'Dancing with The Stars' now that she revealed she didn't vote in the election," a family friend tells me. "Sarah is worried that if Bristol couldn't be bothered to vote in an election so important to her mother and the country, why would anyone bother to vote for her on a dancing competition?"
McCain
voiced her disappointment in Bristol on 'The Tonight Show' last week, telling Jay Leno, "I think a lot of women worked really hard to give us the right to vote. Anyone that doesn't vote is just ridiculous." But McCain didn't realize how right she was when she joked that it was only important for Bristol Palin to vote for 'Dancing With the Stars.'
"How stupid do you have to be to be taking part in a competition where the only thing that keeps you in each week is viewers' votes," one source tells me. "Let's face it: Bristol isn't winning because of her dancing. It's her family's political views and fan base that is keeping her around. What she did last week was spit in all those fans' eyes."
Tomorrow we will find out if her fans choose to spit back and forget to vote too!

It doesn't change my opinion of her. I still think she's a brainless moron who makes bad decisions all the time.
She got that gene from mama.

Megan McCain is not someone that I would consider serious. The fact that she showed no respect when speaking about anyone during the interview where she stated that Bristol only worries about voting for dancing with the stars made her look even more ridiculous than her cheating mother. I love this , So does My boyfriend .he is almost 11year older than me .i met him via agegapsingl es.c 'om a nice place for seeking age le ss love.which gives you a chance to make your life better and open opportunities for you to meet the attractive young girls and treat you like a king. Maybe you wanna check it out or tell your friends.. Just love it
Little bear cub only leaves the den to go to the voting polls for Grizzly Mamma.
Whatever!? So she didn't vote. She's very young with lots of responsibility at this time and had to vote absentee. Had she been at home and didn't vote, that might be different. Maybe deep down she doesn't give a hoot about politics since it's taken up so much of her mother's time, so it might have been a bit of a rebellion on her part. I am neutral toward her and not voting would not sway me one way or another.

McCain needs to take a chill pill. Who died and appointed her to judge????
i hate to break it to sarah palin but not voting isn't gonna get her voted off the show it will be her not dancing good

Her total inability to dance hasn't gotten her kicked off yet....the ONLY thing that's keeping her on the show is her last name. She just needs to go away....far a-w-a-y.....Alaska sounds like a good place for her....
Action....that's the truth. The only reason she's still dancing is for TV ratings. But ya have to admit....with Mama out there with the Tea Party and Bristol not voting....now that's funny. Can't help but laugh. I wonder if her mom remembered to vote.
Palins,please shut up and go home!

Give Bristol a break. She is a kid who got pregant had a kid like a million others in this world. Only thing is she is lucky. She has parents who have the means to help her. I say she should take this ride as long as she can and put the money in the bank. In a year from now she will be back in Alaska with her baby and will probably marry that baby's daddy.

Bristol's not voting isn't going to affect her on Dancing With The Stars or affect her Mom. The reason she didn't vote ( I heard was that her absentee ballot didn't reach her in time. That is not her fault.
Don't you peple have anything better to worry about or talk about?

I have a bridge I am looking to sell. You sound like a likely buyer.
Meghan McCain is pissed off because they didn't ask her to dance. Who is she kidding, she would have jumped at the chance. Plus, why does she even care about Bristol Palin?

Like mother, like daughter. Two empty suits.

Her mother actually thinks that Bristol has a chance of winning? If she does, DWTS best hang it up... I've watched her, it isn't pretty...

Big Deal!!! How many adults didn;t bother to vote this year? If you have a 19 year old, did they vote? Megan McCain's brain is not always engaged before she opens her mouth to opine. Once again proving that kids are NOT their parents. Get over it & leave Bristol alone, she is trying to make it on her own with a world watching for ever slip. How would your kid do????

Who died and elected Megan McCain a spokes person for the people. She is an opinionated joke ! As far as Bristol not voting in this election, I wonder how many other guest stars on the show didn't vote. Getting really tires of the bashing that goes on because Bristol is a contestant. She has as much right to be there as a football player, a basketball player,and anyone one else who is NOT a "star".

right on.
Bristol Palin is not a star. Those football players, basketball players etc. are stars and have earned their way to be on DWTS as a STAR. What has Bristol done but have a baby at 16 and carry her idiot of a mother's last name. That does not make her a star. Anyone else's daughter who had had a child at 16 would not be given praise as this girl has been given. Besides she is a stiff piece of wood, that has no rhythm and just cannot dance. She should have been kicked off weeks ago, instead STARS who can dance are being eliminated because her mom has petitioned her Tea Party for votes. Those votes are not for Bristol but for "I wouldn't want to be in some crappy old government office" Mom. WAKE UP!!!!!!!!!!!
