"&amp;#xA0;\r\nCheryl Burke says she learned one important lesson from her former Dancing With the Stars partner Tom DeLay, who quit the show Tuesday due to a stress fracture in each of his feet.\r\n&amp;quot;He taught me that politicians can dance!&amp;quot; she told Usmagazine.com after Tuesday&amp;apos;s show. &amp;quot;He&amp;apos;s got some rhythm in those hips.&amp;quot;\r\nBurke, 25, added that she also learned &amp;quot;a little bit about politics.&amp;quot;\r\n\r\nBefore meeting DeLay, 62, &amp;quot;I never knew my left from my right,&amp;quot; she added. &amp;quot;I know that&amp;apos;s embarrassing but I&amp;apos;m learning!&amp;quot;\r\nBut the former House Republican Whip said he didn&amp;apos;t influence her that much.\r\n&amp;quot;I haven&amp;apos;t made her a conservative yet!&amp;quot; he told Us. &amp;quot;That might have taken another month or so!&amp;quot;\r\n\r\nThe two still plan to dance together, despite no longer competing on the show.\r\n&amp;quot;He&amp;apos;s going to teach me the Texas two-step,&amp;quot; Burke told Us. &amp;quot;I&amp;apos;ll go back to Houston where he&amp;apos;s from and he&amp;apos;s going to take me to a dance hall!\r\nDeLay wasn&amp;apos;t the only celeb who exited Tuesday: Debi Mazar and partner Maksim Chmerkovskiy were sent home.\r\nBut she said she hasn&amp;apos;t hung up her dancing shoes for good.\r\n&amp;quot;I&amp;apos;ll have private classes now with Maks, of course!&amp;quot; Mazar, 45, told Us.\r\n\r\nAdded Chmerkovskiy, 29, &amp;quot;Every season when we get eliminated I offer private classes. The only one who took me up on the opportunity was Mel B! So I&amp;apos;m hoping Debi will, too.&amp;quot;\r\n&amp;#xA0;"^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
