Nowhere on the census form does it ask if you’re a CITIZEN...so just how do we apportion the House of Representatives..

I think THAT is their whole purpose for the census. Reapportionment. Non citizens should not be counted. They are transients and should not be counted towards monies or apportionments. jmo

It is a nice photo of her. Lacey has beautiful eyes--I don't know why she wants to look like a raccoon.

She has a big smile. Maybe she is trying to draw people's eyes to her eyes instead of her mouth??

The way she does her eye make up makes her eyes look squinty or narrow. Too much dark all around. jmo

I prefer to look at as “creative procrastination”. LOL.

Scary thing is that playing with stats and numbers is something I enjoy to do as a brain break from my job (Sr. computer security analyst)

” could be the way you called it but I don’t think Big Mike is going to make the final 3...”

Who would you see in his place?

There seems to be a longstanding tradition of a "surprise" vote-off for 4th place. (Tamiyra Gray, LaToya London, Chris Daughtry, etc.) This year's "surprise" at #4 is likely to be Big Mike or Crystal. If that's the case, you might see someone like Aaron slip into the top 3, along with Siobhan and either Lee (ala Kris Allen last year), Didi (if she continues to improve), or Casey (if he gets a following).

I caught the playbacks. At this point, #11 Aaron and #12, Crystal did the best last night. I cannot understand why they were gaga over the girl with the funny name. She stunk on ice. I’ve heard lifeboat horns better than what she did last night.

Good call. I think we will see another surprise before this is all over.

Although I thought Crystal, Sioban (sp?) and Casey were the best, I really enjoyed Tim's reggae sound. He was completely right when he said he realized that he could never "do the Stones" so he went out on a limb, and I liked that. I hope he gets one more week.

Was I the only one that thought Lee was way to nasally, and that Didi sang her song way to slow? I also could not stand Andrew. Paige surprised me, and I hope she gets one more chance.

hmmm....I think Casey James or Lee

” hmmm....I think Casey James or Lee

Thats the X Factor in all of this. I think we each like a certain style of singing, appreciate someone who can cross lines to change their style, and think that this is a singing
competition.

In the end these “surprises” are popularity contests so under that scenario I’d see Casey making it, and Lee and Mike gone...

Enjoyed hearing your opinion.

Oh, I want him to be gone, but I know the Ashleys of America will keep him in the game.

The teens will keep Aaron in.

He sure tries hard to be good and consistent every week.

Give him A for Effort.

I agree with you about Siobhan’s performance.

Love that stones song, hated having to hear her do it.

It didn’t sound good. Off key....odd facial expressions (it looked like she was going to the bathroom at times), and that weird screaming note at the end???

The judges keep doing that Jedi mind trick about how we (America) should love her because of the weirdness.

I’m not buying it. To me it comes off as desperate and fake.

Kinda reminds me of Adam last season. He has a better voice than this girl, but the personality was a turn-off.

I wish the judges wouldn’t try to shove stuff down our throats. It always backfires.

Yes, I’ll go along with this prediction. I think Crystal will most likely be the”surprise” vote-off. She appeals to an older crowd. (Like us here on this thread.)

You might be right. I don’t know if the teeny-boppers are getting her vibe.

I know she will get a record contract. Which is great for her. I just want her to stay on because I enjoy listening to her.

There has only been one idol that I have really loved and that won: Chris - last season.

Usually I can predict who goes or stays, but it isn’t usually the way I wish it would go.

Any other song (not the Stones) I may have liked it too...it made me cringe. I actually played the song for my teen (who never heard the Stones version) and she saw why I was cringing.

That said, I hope he's not the one to go tonight
