Pop culture and politics came together on ABC-TV's this season, thanks to the presence of Bristol Palin.
And while this blogger did not watch a minute of the show, lots of folks did. So, for those who need to know and might have missed last night's finale (maybe because they were stuck on some highway?):
Bristol, daughter of 2008 GOP vice presidential nominee Sarah Palin, did not win.
The crown went to actress Jennifer Grey of Dirty Dancing fame.
Meanwhile, Bristol's mom :
Congrats Jen,Kyle,Bristol,et al, for proving competition is GOOD! Remember: "They're going to criticize anyway, so you might as well dance!"
We now gratefully return all Dancingcoverage to our friend Linda Holmes .
