So many viewers voted after Monday's "Dancing With the Stars" finale that they temporarily overwhelmed the show's voting system.

Truth be told.

I couldn’t get into the website at all. Not logging in, not with MySpace nor with Twitter. I refused to use my FB account.

ABC shifted votes from Palin to Gray.

ABC can’t stop cheating.

I had issues voting but finally got through. The call went dead at least two times, fast busies etc. How can they say it was equal? Sounds like BS to me.

I wish the MSM would take as much interest in the election process of US Senators.

In other words, Bristol won, we can’t have that so we created an excuse to fix the results. Or Bristol won so we are give her liberal haters a bone by discrediting her win. Why not just have Kanya just come on stage and say she did not deserve it.

I couldn’t vote by phone or online last night, but I was able to vote with three different email addresses this morning.

Tell ABC the Tea Party is practicing for 2012.

They'll understand.

Jennifer? Jennifer who? Couldn’t be Jennifer Grey. I don’t recall her looking like that. She had a bigger nose.

I had NO problem voting this morning using the ABC DWTS internet site. That being said, I don’t even watch TV and have never seen even 1 minute of DWTS. But... I voted for Palin, hoping to enjoy knowing the left has exploding heads if she wins.
