Herman Cain Will Not Dance With the Stars
The former GOP front-runner seemed to enjoy the spotlight, so it comes as some surprise that he rebuffed ABC when it offered to let him cha-cha among other B-list (and below) celebrities on "Dancing With the Stars." Apparently he does not have moves like Jagger and/or Tom DeLay.

Atlanta Journal-Constitution via Political Wire:
A spokeswoman for Herman Cain confirmed this morning that the former GOP presidential candidate was approached by ABC’s “Dancing with the Stars” to appear on this season’s competition.
But Cain nixed the idea. “He can’t dance in an eight-count. He can only dance in a nine-count,” said Lisa Reichert, Cain’s executive assistant.
Nine-count. Get it? 9-9-9.

As if schlocky TV and American politics weren't harrowingly similar enough already, this week brings the word that onetime tea party Senate hopeful Christine O'Donnell of Delaware got the invite to join the prancing cohort of celebs on the next "Dancing With the Stars."
Forgive us this unabashed descent into mass culture, but our long national nightmare is over. Bristol Palin, despite some critics' allegations of tea party favoritism, did not win on "Dancing With the Stars." That honor (if it is one) goes to "Dirty Dancing" star Jennifer Grey, because nobody puts Baby in a corner.
