Carly: This girl has been the biggest disappointment to me out of the top twelve. She has a very nice powerful voice full of potential. Over the last five weeks, Tuesday night was the single time when she ‘almost’ lived up to her promise. I have never found Jesus Christ Superstar to be my cup of tea, so I don’t care for it as much as the judges, but I did think it was good. I thought that might save her, but Jason and Brooke’s fan club (or whatever) were too powerful to overcome.

One of those two should have gone last week when Kristy was booted after presenting a great performance. Kristy was really coming into her own, and deserved to stay longer. Girl couldn’t dress hereself if her life depended on it. Her audition look was never achieved again once, during her participation on American Idol. During her audition she was breathtakingly cute.

Sayesha: All season I have talked about Sayesha having a great voice. This week and last, she has come closer to her true potential than ever before IMO. That saved her. If she would have had a medeocre performance on Tuesday, she would have been booted. I would seriously urge this girl to get some help with song choices, clothing and hair. She is not realizing her full potential IMO.

David Archuletta: The kid has an excellent voice. His interview timidity seems to be playing well with the teeny-bopper chicks. It wears somewhat thin with me, but he has a great voice and should be in the final two IMO.

David Cook: This guy is phenominal. He’s got a rocker voice, but it’s a soft rock sound and should have a broad appeal. His songs seem to be unique, edgey and exactly what the judges seem to want. And I think they’re right to do so. I was honestly surprised by his Phantom song on Tuesday night. That was a hard song, and this kid not only pulled it out, but wow... IMO, at this point David deserves the win.

Brooke: As a person I like Brooke. As for signing... as a person I like Brooke. I had not honestly expected the Carly Simon genre to prevail here. Every one of her songs sound alike to me. Her voice is nice. She looks nice. She is nice. Voting for her because she is nice, isn’t. It was unforgivable to keep her and send someone else home after her forgetting her words. This is the second time she has had to start a song over. Contestants were sent home in the first round for forgetting their lyrics. So instead of Brooke going home, someone who remembered their words and put in a great performance did. Brooke just went to zero points in my book.

Jason: Sanjaya lives. I’ve been saying it for about six weeks now. This guy has no depth to his voice whatsoever. He is capable of spitting out the lyrics from a place never lower than his voice box. The others belt it out from their stomachs. The sad thing here is that the judges continue to give this pretender a pass. Look, top 100 perhaps... tip five, are these judges fricken kidding me? If Jason were competing with the 20-40 spot positions from last year, I think he wins that contest. The field was so strong this year, he should never have been part of the top twelve. They pulled him in for the look and the variety. Then the teeny-boppers signed on and the rest was history. Tell me Jason is better than Michael Johns. Tell me he is better than Kristie Cook. Tell me he’s better than Carly. Hell no. I don’t even think he’s better than the Asian girl they sent home three weeks ago. Jason has got to go. I say this, because if he doesn’t, better talent will have to. If American Idol wants to be outed for being a complete waste of time, where cute beats talent, then they judges should praise Jason each week, and watch the prestige of the show wind up in the toilet. Otherwise they better get with the program and start addressing this kid for the lack of tallent that he is. Otherwise he’s going to the top three, outlasting no less than six contestants who had more tallent.
