I'm 37 and I voted for him, several times. At this stage in the competition, it is not just about the singing--it's the whole package. I think Melinda has the best vocals but her stage prescence is hit or miss. When she's not singing, she's completely awkward. Jordin is a good singer but again, no real stage personality, and she insists on singing out of date material.

It's funny how a lot of freepers are trashing the way Blake dresses, and I don't want that to come off as insulting. I live near MSU, along with four other college campuses. It's not the teens who dress like Blake around here, it's the collegians, and there are thousands of them. I guess I'm just used to seeing people dress like that, "modern retro." That fake tuxedo t-shirt deal he wore recently made me want to hurl, however. Wearing a shirt like that should be punishable by law.

I'm with ya, Greliss. I voted for Blake several times because he is the most entertaining. If you go to a Melinda concert, you'd be bored by the 5th song.

Did you happen to notice that Melinda had the smallest crowds at her hometown? The camera angles were carefully not to show the lack of depth of the crowds. There were no helicopter shots like there were for Blake and Jordin. That in itself tells us that Melinda doesn't have the draw of the other two. Best vocals, yes, but draw? No.

In the end, a Blake/Gina final would have been fantastic but I'll take a Blake/Jordin with Blake winning.
