No change so far in Tradesports numbers....still about 65/35 in favor of Taylor.
Interesting note:
Idol "favorites" usually win, with a year 2 exception.
1) Winner Kelly was favored over Justin
2) Clay was the slight favorite over Ruben but even though Ruben won, Clay sold more records.
3) Fantazer was the favorite of season 3 once Latoya was out. Diana D was a great vocalist but she didn't stand a chance against all the hype.
4) Carrie was the favorite over Bo Bice. Simon said so early on and never changed his mind. It was a "close call" but Carrie won and has proven herself via record sales and awards. (Tonight's ACM Awards too)
5) Taylor is favored over Katharine and has been the favorite since Katharine beat Chris a few weeks back. Chris was the odds on favorite all year but Taylor's never scored in the bottom 3.
Can McFever pull the upset of Idol History by winning? Anything can happen (as we saw when she beat out Chris) but I don't think she can do it.
We'll see tomorrow night.

I hope he can, but stranger things have happened. The schmaltzy pop ballad type of song is right up Kat's alley (do you know how hard it was not to write "taylor made for Kat"? :-D).
