After Bristol Palin brought unprecedented buzz and ratings to “Dancing with the Stars,” the show’s producers are dying to go back to the Palin well, FOXNews.com reported yesterday.
This time, they want Bristol’s dad, Todd (pictured).
“They’d love Sarah, but they don’t think that will ever happen, so why not go for the dad?” a source told E! Online.
The show is also after another politician’s daughter — Meghan McCain. Which would mean, if producers have their way, family members of the 2008 GOP presidential ticket would be competing against one another.
Bristol Palin’s run to the finals this season was full of intrigue. The show’s most improved dancer, she was nonetheless maligned for being the least talented of the final three. “Dirty Dancing” star Jennifer Grey was named champion.
