If Bristol Wins 'Dancing,' Can Sarah Palin Win the White House?

If Bristol Wins 'Dancing,' Sarah Palin Believes She Can Take White House

While all those political folks are debating what it would take for Sarah Palin to run for the presidency in 2012, my entertainment sources are telling me the answer is much more simple. If Bristol wins 'Dancing With the Stars,' Sarah is in for sure.

"Sarah ultimately wants to win if she runs again; she's not interested in running to increase her popularity or visibility. She will only run if she thinks she can win," a friend of Bristol's tells me. "And the best barometer at the moment is Bristol's success on 'Dancing With the Stars.' If Bristol can get enough votes to win the mirror ball trophy, Sarah is convinced she can get enough votes to send her to the White House."

It's true, Bristol and Sarah's participatiion in the enormously successful TV competition has shown a new side of the Palin family. Plus, with her new reality show, 'Sarah Palin's Alaska,' debuting Sunday night to beyond-stellar ratings, no one should be surprised that the former governor is tying hard to re-brand herself and her family.

"Sarah and her family got off on the wrong foot with a lot of people in the great American public," a political insider tells me. "There were so many lies and attacks on her that 'Dancing With the Stars' and her new reality show have both been great opportunities to reintroduce her and her family. And at the end of the days lets face it, we don't pick a president because of his or her policies and we don't pick the 'Dancing With the Stars' winner because of his or her fancy footwork. We pick them because we like them."

If this is true, no one tell Kate Gosselin ... can you imagine what she would be like if she thought we actually liked her?

I agree. Bristol needs to go. Good dancers got kicked off already. I stopped watching dwts now.At this point the ones who r left should be good dancers. I wouldnt want to win because my mommy helped. I would want to win because i was good. This is political for Sarah. Both go home. I dont want Sarah running our country. God help us.She is fake.Another good speech maker to fool everyone.

I could have told you that blindfolded.

If Bristol Wins Dancing, Can Sarah Win the White House"? This has got to be the most dumbest question I've ever heard. Neither of them should win anything. They are both annoying! Hasn't America had its fill of the Palins yet? I'd love to live one day when the name Palin wasn't mentioned by the media. Talk about over exposure!! A short time ago it was all about Britney & look how much she's in the news nowadays.

By A Liberal

There are three good dancers left, and one fattie with two left feet. I'm tired of the crazy Republicans running EVERYTHING, including stupid entertainment programs....

hahaha that's funny. Everyone knows the media and the Entertainment business is controlled by the Liberals.

By phinfan

Sorry to burst your bubble...If have not been watching the news lately the country has been being ran by Democrats,but I agree with everyone else, she needs to go. Bristol would not even be on that show if it was not for her mother. Everybody knows who is going to win and it's not Bristol. There are Republicans out there that are not fans of Sarah Palins believe it or not.Unlike Democrats we don't just vote for someone because we are told to. We actually look into their background and "UNDERSTAND" what they stand for.

Ha ha ha, that's the stupidest thing I've read here yet..need a tissue..

Oh really, well, get used to it penis head!

Oh really, well, get used to it D--k head!

On DWTS all the Tea Partiers get to vote as many times as they want. That is the only reason why the unwed, uneducated, teen mom, who can't dance is still on the show. In real elections you only get to vote once, so Karaboo Barbie doesn't have a chance at the White House!!!

By Patrick

Hey numb nuts............ it's Caribou, not Karaboo.
Are you uneducated too like you claim about Bristol?
Where did you go to school? Nu Juzzy?

By Bill S

Actually Patrick NJ has one of the best school systems in the country and I'm from PA. I do think the Palins(mother and daughter are hot) I guess I don't get out enough

By Bill

Patrick: It's Nu Joysee. This clown is probably from Camden or Joysee city.

By timmyshmmimmy

The Tea Party has as much to do with Bristol Palin as the Land Rover that Brandy was driving when she killed that lady!

By amlngn

So this is how she helps teen moms? I cant help but think what a horrible message she really is sending. She is being glamorized. This is a far fricking cry from the life of a teen age mom. She cant dance, she is doing the same hypocritical antics as her mother now, it is pure BS from this white trash family. Its all about the big frickin camera.

Sarah must have pulled in a lot of favors and spent a lot of cash buying all the votes necessary to keep Bristol on the show.

By Bryan

Nothing to do with pulling favors but everything to do with voters blindly voting on popularity. Sarah and Bristol are in the same camp on this one, no talent.

These are the same voters who would walk off a cliff if Sarah asked them.
