Good God, now I've seen everything. The "Hammer", Tom Delay is a contestant on "Dancing with the Stars"....
so whatever happened to his court case
the left will love it if he is the first booted...we should call in and help him win at least for our face value....
conservatives that is.
Gee, I wonder who will be the first contestant to get the ax.
yep - it’s a little odd, isn’t it?
DeLay, not Delay.
And hey, if Emmitt Smith and Jason Taylor can be on the show, Tom DeLay might as well. Though I wish he’d set up a PAC or some lobbying group and get to work dismantling liberal infrastructure.
Oh I think it’s still bubbling in the background. The left will keep some tiny part of it active because he’ll have the etiquette to stay off the hill while it’s going on.
Will there be sequins?
Oops, thought something looked wrong. My bad, this is my first post...
You did fine.
Maybe we should call him Hammer Toes.
I think some will give him a hard time...
I am watching the show...but he hasn’t danced yet....
I will vote for him..just hope he is better than Tucker Carlson.
He has a stress fracture in his foot.
Thanks...I just checked twitter out...
I hope he does well...
I believe he’s up next.
LOL. Tom is so funny. He was just shaking his but on live TV before they broke for commercial. It looks like the guy has a great sense of humor.
I had the same thought.
Tom Delay is up ...
Can’t say he doesn’t have a sense of humor! LOL!
Wow he really surprised me and was quite amusing. Not bad at all.
He looks like he’s having a great time...so I guess I won’t call him Tom DeGay!
I read his partner, Cheryl Burke’s, comments on him a few days ago. She said she knew nothng of his politics and had to Google him to find out who he was. She said that he was really nice, a great family guy, and quite fun to work with. She had all good things to say about him.
I don’t watch the show at all, but I flipped over just hoping to catch him and to see the judges’ and audience’s reactions. So far, so good!
That was brave!
Go Tom!
Wild Thang!! ha ha He has a sense of humor...
I liked him he was entertaining...
Fun

Scores were low but I’m going to call as often as permitted to insure he comes back. What a hoot.
I only watched tonight because of DeLay. I thought Tom was great - very funny, and not a bad dancer.
Great one liners - “I’ve got bigger critics than these judges” or something to that effect. Sure to be one of the wittier, sharper contestants if they keep him around.
You and the majority of the audience it seems. From what we've seen thus far, he will undoubtedly be in the finals.
I’m calling for Tom tho, hoping he can stay on for as long as possible.
I have never called in a vote...until now. Go Tom!
I’ve tried calling several times and the line is busy so I guess we all have the same thought. I believe we can vote 5 times and I intend to do just that. IMHO his waltz was better than the fellow who came in 3rd place, hands down.
I think he did the beat on the waltz.
I voted
He is very witty
I voted 5 times and all were accepted!! Let’s try to get him back.

for those that missed it

painful
that clip is messed up when I try to view. I am sure a better one will show up.
I watched it and Delay had very good footwork. Must be all those years in congress.
LOL. Have you no shame?
You can also vote online at abc.com
Teeheee. Just got done voting for him 10 times -— permitted per the website.
LOL! I hadn’t even thought of voting multiple times until I read your post...So I just tried again and got the recording that my voting in my time zone is closed, but that I can vote on ABC’s website. May give that a whirl!
That's not too much of a stretch. LOL
Bump!
Good luck. Website had some snags initially but finally worked itself out. Was tempted to see if it was because I was voting for Tom but didn’t want to waste the 10 votes allotted to vote for someone else.
I'd like to see Tom survive for a few weeks to avenge that judges remark that he ‘was as crazy as Palin’!
Dang, I missed it doing homework with the kids...
They said that? Why do Republicans go on these shows and allow them to strike at us at every chance they get? Was he at least tolerable to watch or was he embarrasing?
He seemed to be having fun and was better at the 2nd dance the ‘waltz’....So I’d say he was fun to watch and not embarrassing at all.
Good grief. My cat has more rhythm than Delay showed. They asked Pat Buchanan first and he turned them down. He said he had better sense than the hammer. And I agree.
Tom Delay made it thru to another week...
He was having fun...hope he makes it another week or two at least.
