What's Your Reaction?

Tom Delay made his debut tonight with partner Cheryl Burke on ABC's "Dancing with the Stars" and it was a jarring sight, to say the least, to see the man whose nickname in Congress was 'the Hammer' dancing the cha cha, shaking his behind to "Wild Thing."

Perhaps one of the judges, Bruno, said it best: "You're crazier than Sarah Palin!"

While I cannot say for one minute that I agree with anything that comes out of this man's mouth I seriously don't see how people can be so cruel to make such remarks that clearly have nothing to do with his dancing. He's out there trying- and that is serious physical activity. I felt, while I cannot believe i am saying this because I am sure he has no care in the world for me, sorry for him thinking that people are taking this opportunity to take out their frustrations with his politics. Doesn't seem right.

All I can say if Ashley Hamilton and his partner were first to go home they must have been hideous.

I gouged out my own eyes, but the images are still in my head.

The horror! The horror!

Tom DeGay should be dancing behind the bars after this stint. What a prancing queen.

( Sorry to my gay brothers and sisters, just couldn't resist the pun, no offense intended in any way)

Tom looked pretty good, especially for a 62-year-old white guy. He was stiff and had no hip movement at all but his footwork was decent and he had no shortage of confidence or energy.

Gotta call that a win.

What kind of a win is THAT?

I don't often agree with Maureen Dowd---I find her writing style grating---but she said that all that Tom DeLay did was show that having the guts to humilite yourself on national tv is apparently redemption enough for all manner of evil.

This man was known as the meanest man in Congress----he reveled in being a bad-ass and so now, he demonstrates that he doesn't take himself too seriously, and we are supposed to feel affection for him?

I think all of the times he pulled his mean ol hammer routine in Congress he showed just exactly how seriously he takes himself, and for that, he'll have to dance till his legs fall off before he earns any redemption from me.

Yikes the standards must be low on this show. If you break down the dance into footwork and confidence, sure, but that is mistaking the forest for the trees. The performance as a whole was an embarrassing spectacle.

WOW he makes better moves than as a politician!

I think we may have new method of torture here! This could be the visual equivalent of waterboarding. Show Tom Delay and his gyrating backside on a continual loop to prisoners that are being interrogated. Personally, I think I'd confess to anything to make them stop.

This was very poor dancing. No slickness at all.
