Where's Tom DeLay when you need him?

Monday night all of the remaining couples on ABC's Dancing With the Stars faced off in a traditional ballroom style competition, doing a four-minute mambo marathon with couples being tapped out in succession until only one couple remained on the dance floor.

Ultimately, Derek and Joanna came up with some raucous and racy moves to take the top spot.

Be sure to check out Donny Osmond's grand exit as he and partner Kym Johnson get tapped from the dance floor.

Doggone it anyway! Dancing...conflicts with the "other" dancing show, "So you think you can Dance?!" My preference is the latter!
It's a bumer they are on at the same time!

I never miss this show. Last night was no exception, it also proved what my wife has said all along...I would never make it as a contestant on DWTS.

We always watch it together and she never fails to laugh and point out the fact that, if I ever was to dance on there, I wouldn't last two minutes. She said, the first time one of those beautiful lady dance instructers threw their leg up on my shoulder it would be all over.

We would be on the floor and the stage crew would be using a crow-bar to seperate me from the hapless, skantily-clad instructor.

When she's right, she's right!

Now it's my golden chance to direct YOU unto something. The best dance show ever was the filmed Broadway show "Burn the Floor," especially, the first one. Here is a taste:
