This competition will be settled by the middle schoolers and pre-teens. I think Blake has the edge with that crowd. Jordin appeals to old fogeys like me. I don't vote

boy, isn't that the truth. i consistently told my middle school daughter that blake had ZERO chance of making it into even the final two, let alone winning it all. i had not considered that there are millions of little teenyboppers like her out there texting their heads off. i was sure melinda would be THE American Idol and Jordin second.

I had to read that 4 times. You really thought that millions of teenyboppers were going to vote for Melinda?
