"The producer of ABC reality show Dancing With The Stars has defended contestant Bristol Palin&amp;#039;s spot in the current season&amp;#039;s finale next week. The teen mother has been at the centre of controversy over her place in the final, following the suggestion that viewers may be voting politically due to an allegiance to her mother, former Governor of Alaska Sarah Palin. &amp;quot;I&amp;#039;m kind of mystified about why everyone is finding this such a bizarre thing to happen,&amp;quot; producer Conrad Green told Entertainment Weekly. &amp;quot;People like young contestants, contestants who aren&amp;#039;t from the mainstream, who have got a tough story and who have come from no dance training. &amp;quot;This should be the best week of her life, I really feel for this girl,&amp;quot; Green added. The final episode of this season of Dancing With The Stars will air on ABC on November 23. "^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
