Per Washington Post "Former Alaska governor Sarah Palin (R), who has been largely out of the public eye through much of the spring, will reemerge beginning Sunday as she kicks off an East Coast tour that will put her back in the spotlight and no doubt fuel renewed speculation about a possible presidential campaign in 2012.
“Starting this weekend, Sarah Palin will embark on a one-nation tour of historical sites that were key to the formation, survival and growth of the United States of America,” according to a statement from her political action committee. “The tour will originate in Washington, D.C., and proceed north up the East Coast. More information will follow.”
"Recent reports claim Sarah Palin is “furious” over daughter Bristol Palin‘s new boyfriend Kyle Massey. Problem is, they’re not dating each other.
A source close to the Dancing with the Stars contestants tells Celebuzz that the two have grown close as friends: ”They are both in relationships. Kyle has a long term girlfriend.”
Part of the National Enquirer report, however, may ring true (maybe). Mama Palin is supposedly upset with Bristol’s relationship — but the tabloid never gives specifics on who the guy is. Their source says:
“Sarah is furious at Bristol for going so quickly from man to man … She is doing her best to prevent Bristol’s new relationship from being featured in the reality show.”
Given that our source also says Bristol is dating, it may be fair to assume part of the story could be correct in that Sarah doesn’t want her daughter’s private life to be aired on TV. Fair enough!
Kyle and Bristol will be moving in together, but it is to film a new reality show. The currently untitled project will follow her move to Los Angeles, where she’ll be living with her DWTS buddy and his brother Christopher Massey to work on an as-yet unidentified charity project."

'Dancing With the Stars': Who will be next year's Bristol? By Melissa Bell
Bristol Palin packed a punch on "Dancing with the Stars."When "Dancing With the Stars" came out, I remember clearly thinking: This show is going to be such an utter flop. That, my friends, is why I am not a successful television producer.
The show has skyrocketed to fame with a roster of shimmying, shaking and sweating stars cutting a rug for our weekly viewing pleasure. But what was once a show dedicated to '70s stars looking for a little love in the new century (Remember David Hasselhoff was supposed to be this year's big ratings get), is now a political statement of national importance. Thanks to Bristol Palin, with her accompanying aroma of political intrigue, the show's incited people into possible voter fraud, and actual violence against television sets.
The Post's resident "DWTS" dancing expert extraordinaire, Lisa de Moraes, wrote on Monday that the Bristol effect has been a risky choice for the formerly "cheestastic" dancing show. Conrad Green, the executive producer, even worried about angering his audience, although he had "no idea" she would be such a polarizing figure:
"It's been illuminating," Green said. "A lot of this is timing -- it's a particularly bad time in American politics. I love that people are being passionate but sad so many people are angry. ... I don't want to anger our audience. ... That was never my intention" in casting Bristol on the show, he added, exuding sadness.
I am guessing the phenomenal ratings somewhat mitigated his sorrow, though. The show hit record numbers with 24 million viewers Monday.
I'd be willing to guess that means a future "DWTS" with at least one polarizing political figure in its dancing fold. Here's our list of 10 possible politicians (or their relatives) I would love to see doing the cha-cha. Which one should be next year's Bristol?
With Bristol's fame growing by the day and DWTS at season's end...what is next for America's darling? Her resume is growing by the day as seen on IMDB. BRISTOL'S IMDB LINK. Sarah flirting with the presidency may keep her in the news for a while but instinct says that she will likely be the new Kate + 1 this year. Reality TV is what the palins are made for and while she won't be chasing down Tripp in an imaginary flying saucer perhaps she'll find a classier way to stay in the limelight. Let us know what you think her future is in the comments section below.
