Dance and Politics in Australia

I came across this article about dancing politicians and found it quite relevant to our class discussions about dances going viral on the web.

In Australia, a video of a lawmaker dancing has become an internet sensation, after a senator danced to songs like the Hokey Pokey and the Time Warp during a political meeting.

The original video that went viral was of liberal senator, Mary Jo Fisher, who performed the two dances as she discussed the Governments climate change policy.

This Australian website polled their readers to ask if they would like to see more Parliament members dancing, and a majority said yes.

Below is a link to the article.
