An exclusive preview of the interview is available now on ETOnline.com.

The former Vice Presidential candidate told ENTERTAINMENT TONIGHT that Bristol on DWTS "is the biggest thing to happen to our little town... ever. This is great! This is really good for Alaska." Sarah goes on to thank the people of Wasilla for showing their support for Bristol. She says, "This is Wasilla; they circle the wagons, they come together, they want to support their own.
