ANCHORAGE, Alaska (AP) — Bristol Palin has been so busy practicing her moves for “Dancing With the Stars,” she apparently forgot to send in her absentee ballot.
The 20-year-old daughter of former Gov. Sarah Palin, who campaigned for candidates across the nation in this election, told the syndicated TV show “Inside Edition” after Tuesday’s night show, “I did not send in my absentee ballot in Alaska. I’m going to be in trouble. Sorry, Mom!”
Bristol Palin also voiced her opinion on whether she thinks her mom should run for president in 2012.
“Of course I do. I know that she‘s great and she’d be great for our country,” she said.
Palin will be one of five people returning to dance Monday on “Dancing With the Stars.”

Posted on November 4, 2010 at 9:09amShe is young and her priorities are not the same as a mature adult. But she does need to learn quickly that just because a reporter sticks a microphone in her face and asks her a question, she shouldn’t share her every thought. What she was quoted saying in the interview should have been a private conversation with her mother.

Posted on November 4, 2010 at 9:01amThe sad part of this is the way the left bashes real people who are honest and not afraid to shed a tear in public. The current left media reminds me of the days in grade school when kids made fun of other kids if their parents could not afford brand name cloths or if they were slow with certain subjects. If evolution were true science wouldn’t these animals be human by now? :)…

Posted on November 4, 2010 at 7:35amas an armchair psychologist who knows diddly…I’m thinkin maybe she is subconsciously rebelling against her beautiful, famous mom, whose run for office put her pregnancy in the limelight. Sort of taking advantage of her 15 minutes and stickin’ it to Sarah. i feel bad for the kid…think she needs some time to grow up (don’t we all)

Posted on November 4, 2010 at 7:25amGood grief = she’s twenty years old, unmarried mother. you would think that voting is top prriority with her seeing as her mom is pretty involved. however, that’s not Bristol. my daughter drove a couple hours to be able to vote because she “forgot” to get her absentee ballot. however, she didn’t know one person her age who was voting (she‘s in her early 20’s). I don‘t think it’s that newsworthy to point out that a 20 year old forgot to mail her ballot.

Posted on November 4, 2010 at 7:11amYep, she’s under a magnifying glass. I’ve missed a few elections in my lifetime due to a hectic, crazy schedule, but I didn’t miss this one. Humans are imperfect. That’s why Marxist ideologies aspiring to the perfection of humans will always fail – and as Obama has already shown us – fail miserably.

Posted on November 4, 2010 at 6:38amBristol is old enough to know the importance of a vote as even on the DWTS show without people voting she would have been sent home long ago? To single Bristol out for not voting is wrong when so many thousands are too lazy or have lame excuses regarding not voting.

Posted on November 4, 2010 at 6:14amI am not sure still what to make of Bristol Palin, but I think I like her. She definitely has a terrifc Mom who loves this country and they are a super family. Naturally low life MSNBC will try to make something of this not voting thing but anybody with half a brain would not give any merit to anything these media traitors to America says about anything. They merely say whatever George Soros tells them while lapping at his table for scraps…

If you think that’s bad. I know a guy in Nevada,(full grown man), that doesn’t vote. He owns three construction trucks and hasn’t worked them in a year. He is losing money on property he owns on Lake Powell that he bought to build his retirement home on. Losing money on his depreciating home in Nv.. He and his wife are looking for any kind of work and can’t even get a job in a convience store or warehouse or anything! I asked him why in the world doesn’t he try to vote out Harry Reid. He told me he doesn‘t register to vote because he doesn’t want to maybe have to do jury duty. I couldn’t believe my ears!!! Since Reid won the election, now I can’t hardly bring myself to talk to the idiot!!

Posted on November 4, 2010 at 5:02amIt’s idiots like those who frighten me about the electorate. For every one of him, there are 50 young deluded, and a lot of blacks, who will vote for Obama just because he is black. I’m not a racist, I’m just stating the truth. And I fear that‘s what’s in store for us in 2012 – black will vote Obama back in because 1) he’s black, and 2) they want to keep their welfare and unemployment checks coming.
Sorry if that sounds harsh, but life is harsh.

Posted on November 4, 2010 at 4:14amYes, young girls everywhere should follow in bristol’s footsteps.
Get pregnant, then drop out of school, and then you will be able to become a motivational speaker, and get on dancing with the stars.
She is a self made woman, her success has nothing to do with her mother, the half term governor of Alaska, and reality tv star.
She is an inspiration to us all. She shows all young women the way to live as a true tea bagging patriot.
