Karuuna, I agree with just about everything you've said, except this. Maybe some votes, but not a vast majority. I can understand your skepticism, but we just don't have any way of proving any of it, my conjecture or yours, or people that think all the votes are legitimate. I think the probability is that some votes are because of some kind of "antics', but I also think that most of her votes are not. They are probably not coming from longstanding DWTS fans, but from a fan base that came from her mother's fan base. It is a bit of an anomaly to be able to use political websites to "get out the vote" for quite a different reason than they were created, but let's face it, that's what political blogsites do - get people to vote. And again, Kyle is still there over Brandy. Since his votes are clearly not being driven by political fans, or antics; it must be because he has a lot more real fans than Brandy.

Bristol's free style was at about a high school level. I loved Kyle's free style but I'm a little unsure about the universal appeal of the hip hop. Bristol's first dance had a lot of energy and personality but not a lot of dance difficulty. Was Jennifer supposed to be doing the pasa doble? It was a great job of choreography and execution but I'm not so sure how pasa doble. I didn't catch what Kyle's first dance was but he and Lacey looked great doing it. Kyle has come a long way and I applaud his effort and guts. I hope he wins. Just waiting on Jennifer's free style.

So Derek wins for choreography. Jennifer wins for execution. Whoever picked the music wins a big ole cheeeeeeezzzzzy. Too bad they had so little confidence in the dance that they had to stack the deck.

Thanks Seamonkey. Sometimes I lose the basic dance when it becomes very stylized. I thought they just looked fun doing it.

Honestly, I can't see how Kyle and Lacy got 9's for the Fox Trot which was much more fun and stylish and better executed; and Bristol got 9's for the jive, when she didn't do half the stuff other dancers do in the jive; and her footwork was sloppy. Something doesn't smell right.

Jennifer was the best in the Fox Trot; Kyle's free dance was best. I didn't understand Jennifer's 10's for the freedance. I usually love Derrick's choreography, but there was little dancing and a lot of lifts, which broke up the dance for me. He also had to put Jennifer's hands in the right place for that one lift, which again broke the rythym of the dance. Tom B. said the judges would be juding 2 more dances tomorrow night, but we still needed to vote, as our vote counts for 1/2 their score. How will that work? We won't be voting tomorrow night..right? Why don't they just let the voting count for 1/2 of tonight's scores and then factor in the judges votes for tomorrow night. Tom also said something like, "Even thought you may have been voting for your favorites, you need to vote to get a champion." Interesting.

Me too. Apparently the phones aren't working either. Another Soros conspiracy plot? LOL But seriously, I cannot believe Bristol got such high marks for fumbling around the floor and doing nothing more than shaking her boobies....again. And they keep remarking about how 'out of character' it is for her to dance so 'seductively', like in a cage, and they give her high praise for doing so. That is ridiculous, for obvious reasons. What does that have to do with executing a dance? I think that was Mark's plan from the get-go.....to throw in some unexpected sexy moves *wink wink* and get attention for it, since she isn't a strong dancer on her own.

As a former Brandy/Maks voter, I threw my votes to Bristol tonight. Might as well just let the season finish out with her taking the win. The lines were very busy, lots of busy signals and "call cannot be completed" messages.

While I am favoring Kyle as the best all around performer, I think being over 50 may actually be an advantage for Jennifer. And 50 isn't much of an advantage these days. Fact is she is not splitting a demographic. The two youngin's are bound to split some votes.

Finally made it through on the website. A little dicey but it worked. Maybe they have it fixed now. Gidget, the two young 'uns are two totally different demos, I would suspect, so it does favor Jennifer. I think everyone voting against Bristol and assuming Kyle was the closest competition is what got Brandy booted. I'm not taking any chances so I voted 3 for Jennifer and 2 for Kyle. He was awesome tonight! Would be happy if either won. Bristol just didn't do enough to earn the win, IMO.

Jennifer didn't dance the fox trot.. they did paso doble. Bristol did jive and Kyle did fox trot. Show isn't on yet here and I haven't tried to vote. Watching Little People, Big World. There have been lots of the busy and call cannot be completed in the last few weeks when I tried but of course you can only vote a few times by phone. Usually the cell phone lines are more jammed than landlines.
