Dan Quayle to Dance on 'Stars?'

Will Dan Quayle be putting on his dancing shoes? The former Vice President of the United States is "on the short list" of potential stars for the upcoming season of "Dancing with the Stars," according to online sources.

While no official cast names have been announced, celebs rumored to be under consideration include socialite Kim Kardashian and former boy bander, Lance Bass. An official announcement will soon be made on "Good Morning America."

Quayle served as Veep under the first George Bush, and is best remembered for incorrectly correcting a spelling bee contestant's spelling of "potato" to "potatoe."

Season 7 of "Dancing with the Stars" premieres September 22nd on ABC.

2. What a career.
Remember when people used to make fun of the idea that somebody as stupid as Dan Quayle could have been President? God, what innocent times.

12. John Kerry said something like
the Secret Service have been told that if President GHW Bush is killed they have orders to shoot VP Quayle.

Kerry got ribbed a bit for that. I liked it myself.

16. Dancing with the stars is a television show
that pits dancing celebrity couples against one another.

15. His quotes provided me with many, many, many hours of entertainment.
I wish I could find the huge list of them.

Got some from here
http://www.positiveatheism.org/hist/quotes/quayle.htm

What a waste it is to lose one's mind. Or not to have a mind is being very wasteful. How true that is.
-- Vice President Dan Quayle winning friends while speaking to the United Negro College Fund, 5/9/89. This gem has been added to Bartlett's 'Familiar Quotations' and the Encarta Book of Quotations (reported in Esquire, 8/92) (reported in the NY Times, 12/9/92)

The Holocaust was an obscene period in our nation's history. I mean in this century's history. But we all lived in this century. I didn't live in this century.
-- Senator Dan Quayle, 9/15/88 (reported in Esquire, 8/92, The New Yorker, 10/10/88, p.102)

It isn't pollution that's harming the environment. It's the impurities in our air and water that are doing it.
-- Vice President Dan Quayle

21. I was given a pad of Post-its. Each stickie had a different Quayle quote.
Yes, it was a fairly thick pad.
