Tom DeLay and his partner Cheryl Burke practice for the upcoming season of Dancing With The Stars.

Ever since Tom DeLay signed on for this season of Dancing With The Stars, many have wondered what his foray into fancy footwork might actually look like. And so we present: the rehearsal photo.

The thing he is strapped into in this photo, by the way, is a device that the pro teachers often use to get people to stand up straight and keep their shoulders back.

It is on a day like this that a pop-culture follower wishes that someone had offered long odds a year ago that "Tom DeLay's Dancing With The Stars Rehearsal Photo" would eventually be a real thing. I am beginning to think I should look for someone who will give me hundred-to-one odds for on the equally likely "Jack Nicholson Signs On To Play Gym Teacher In High School Musical 5" for next year.
