I have to disagree with most of these comments. I do agree Brandy was a better dancer, but they do have a very precise process they go though to decide who goes forward. They take the total votes cast by the judges, in the case of the final four, that was 60+58+57+53 or a total of 228 votes. Jennifer had 26.3%, Kyle had 25.4%, Brandy had 25% and Bristol had 23.3% of the total number of judges votes.

Then they do the exact same analysis of the fan votes. Total submitted, % of the total attained by each, and then add the two together and rank 1 through 4. Bristol only had to make up 1.7% from the fans to beat Brandy. She didn't make up enough to beat Kyle.

Three other points.
1. Many other "better" dancers have been voted off in prior weeks and years based on fan support.
2. I think the comments made by Max last week hurt Brandy more with the fans then the quality of her dancing. He made no friends with his remarks and my guess is people voted against him.
3. I believe more people relate to Bristol then the others. She has no prior dancing, singing or other acting experience. She is just someone who came into the spotlight by accident and made the most of it.

So IMHO politics has nothing to do with it. Being "fixed" has nothing to do with it. If they didn't do the fan support correctly, people will stop watching. It's about who is there that is doing what I would do? Who is the underdog? Who needs my vote?

And my vote still goes to Jennifer Gray.
