I stopped watching the show years ago, but this would certainly make for an interesting finale.

I know, lets send minors to Sin City with a pedophile judge!

What an idea.

Oh No! Maybe Rev. Camping was right?

Trying to get the sympathy vote?

We have a 17-yr old God-fearing young man who sings country the way ‘old-timers’ sang, and performed ‘Where were you when the world stopped turning’ during inspirational week. I hope his winning is not tainted by what happened to Lauren, another prodigy singer who’s only 16 year old.

I hope she pulls it off, but as a singer I know how awful it is to sing with swollen vocal chords.

It hurts like hell. I wouldn't have wanted to see Lauren eliminated, I would have rather them pushed the show a week later and I'm sure they could have filled it in with enough performers.

Must have sucked for Haley to get the hope that she'd have a shot at it. Haley will have a great career and Chicago is proud of her :)

This doesn’t belong in the news forum.

I hope singing sensation, 17 year old Scotty McCreery wins.
I’m not a big C/W fan, but this kid has talent.

I felt sorry for him. The libs really flamed him all over the net (especially on the Idol forums) for daring to sing a song mentioning Jesus and for kissing the cross he wears around his neck.

Oh how will I EVER make it through the rest of my life??!!!

I’m still not going to watch!!!

This is the best crop I’ve seen.
I’m not a loyalist, but pop in from time tot time.

Wow. That was a terrible show. Hailey would have been much more fun to watch.
