DeLay Toughs Out Samba, Crawls Out of Last Place

Tom DeLay defied his doctors last night and performed on Dancing With the Stars—despite a stress fracture in each foot. “What’s a little pain when you can party?” asked DeLay, who danced the samba in red, white, and blue. The former House Majority Leader scored kudos from judge Bruno for being a “super trouper,” and scored 15 to rise one spot above last place, Entertainment Tonight reports.
