Tom DeLay, the man famous for twisting arms as a former House majority leader, will now be trying not to step on anyone's toes as a contestant on the upcoming season of "Dancing With the Stars." During more than 20 years in office representing the Houston suburbs, DeLay's strong-arm tactics earned the nickname "The Hammer" (as well as an indictment from a Texas grand jury). Now "The Hammer" (wonder how MC Hammer, a pretty good dancer in his own right, feels about this encroachment on his guys-named-Hammer-who-can-dance territory) will compete against 15 other "celebrities" for dancing's lamest accolade.
How did DWTS nab DeLay? "I know it will sound stupid, we just asked him," DWTS executive producer Conrad Green told Entertainment Weekly.
Watch the video clip from Good Morning America below to find out who DeLay's main dance-off competition will be.
