Here's a thought. Who needs elections when it could all be settled on the dance floor?
Yeah, we know, it's a little silly, but hey, after 18 months of relentless campaign coverage, what's wrong with having some fun at the candidates' expense?
So we decided to ask Dancing With the Stars' Karina Smirnoff who she thought would win in a ballroom battle: Barack Obama or Sarah Palin?
"Sarah. Gotta give it to Sarah," says the dancer.
Who do you think would be victorious? And by all means, feel free to mix up the match-ups because, while we can certainly envision Joe Biden and John McCain going head to head with dueling sambas, it's really hard for us to pick a winner.
