Kendra may have received better judges' remarks and scores, but she brings up the rear in our rankings. We would say her days are numbered, but she clearly has the fan base to keep her around, as proven in the last two weeks.

"I was disappointed that Kendra got DWTS' 1000th dance honor. Her pretaped segment was a mixed bag of immaturity and laying it on thick. But I'd like to think that she's grown up a little more this week. Her dance this week was much more polished than last week, but she's still not my favorite dancer to win." — smileyteach

Romeo's sophisticated foxtrot — complete with '60s swagger — was a charming and high-scoring delight, but the rapper only manages a sixth-place showing on our list.

Chris at long last got an 8 from Len, but he's still stuck in fifth place here despite a lovely Viennese waltz. What's a guy gotta do to move up in the world, er, our rankings?

"Chris- Love him. He did a fabulous job, seems sincere, great personality. I really hope he stays on. He takes on the personality of the dances well too." — b-boo

Mark played it straight with the choreography for once and the end result was another stellar performance from Chelsea, who logs in another week in fourth place. She's closing the gap on our third-place star though, coming in just 1 percent behind.

"I want to like Chelsea, but I cannot stand Mark Ballas so it's hard for me to root for her. She is talented though. The others.....ehhhh." — andy5534

No mishap befell Kirstie and Maks during their rockin' foxtrot. However, the good fortune didn't translate into a move up in our rankings. With Chelsea nipping at her (loose) heels, will she fall out of the top three soon?

"Kirstie is ok--she seems to have slipped a little, like the energy isn't there." — KimyattaDorsey

Hines earned the highest score of the season so far — a 27 — for his rumba, but he remains in the No. 2 spot with our voters. Is a perfect 30 and the No. 1 spot far off?

"I love this guy, but Kim did all the work and he just looked good and did a few poses. What little hip action theere was was very nice." — Polly13

Ralph four-peats at the top of our rankings in spite of (or because of?) some negative comments from the judges for his entertaining samba/country line-dancing hybrid. (Seriously, though, who thought doing a samba to "Sweet Home Alabama" was a good idea?)

"Ralph's dance was okay...in the beginning he was sort of out of step with Karina." — softballqueen
