Originally Posted By topdisneymom I agree with you, sun-in-fun, she needs to quit talking during the judging. I need to stop voting for her just because I like her as a person. It is not a popularity contest but a singing contest. That must be why Jason is still in the running. People must be voting for him because they like him. Next week I am going to vote for the person who does the best.

Originally Posted By trekkeruss I am not a woman and I like Brooke. I think she is "nice." LOL. I like her voice. It's not the best or biggest, and she's messed up a couple of times. But I don't really care that she's not professional or polished, because she isn't a professional. Anyway, I'd like her to stick around a little while longer but if she goes, no worries. She isn't going to win anyway. As long as Kristy Yamaguchi wins DWTS, I don't care too much about what happens on Idol. LOL.

Originally Posted By JazzCat Mater, I DID turn the sound down. I just couldn't tolerate him last night. Brooke was awful too. David Cook and Syeshah (or however her name is spelled) were the best.
Originally Posted By amazedncal2 DH and I are still chuckling about Jason saying he didn't know the song was sung by a cat I almost fell off the couch laughing. Carly and Syesha (sp) were my favorites last night. I didn't care for David Cooks song so I knew the judges would love it. I also think Brooke is nice I think Jason is going home, even though I think he's nice too

Originally Posted By DlandJB I think I probably would put Syesha on top.>>>> I missed her last night - but she must have been good. I'm really going to miss Carly. I can't believe Jason Castro stays on and she goes. But, she has made a name for herself. I can't fathom why Melinda Doolittle hasn't been given a record contract.

Originally Posted By amazedncal2 Last night was pretty strange. No way those 2 should have been the bottom 2 but then again I'm not bothering to vote this year so I'll take part of the blame Neil Diamond? Oh man. I hope we don't have to listen to him "sing." I'd love to have Simon judge him
Originally Posted By RoadTrip I think my nice theory holds. Brooke looks 'nice'. All the women voted for Brooke and she stays even though she should have gone long ago based on talent. Carly looks 'naughty'. She gets sent home before her time. Wow, I LOVE how 'naughty' looks. LOL
Originally Posted By mater4 I was so mad I turned the tv off and went to bed when they revealed the bottom 2. It should have been Jason and Brooke out of all fairness. Jason should have went home. I did fast forward to the final result this morning and was so sad to see Carly go. I liked her.
Originally Posted By Dabob2 <Not happy with who went home tonight or who got the 2nd lowest amount of votes. Sometimes this show blows.> Exactly. After they made the two Davids safe (no surprise), they brought them out two by two and in each case the wrong person was in the bottom tier. It really did blow. Syesha and Carly were so much better than Brooke and (especially) Jason, it wasn't even funny. Though in the end it may not matter as it's probably going to be a David/David final. <I can't fathom why Melinda Doolittle hasn't been given a record contract.> I hate to say it, but I think it's because she's not considered beautiful. I mean, she could sing the phone book and I'd buy it, but the powers that be must think there aren't enough people like me around. If this continues, she should just market herself on the internet; I think she'd have enough fans to do respectably, maybe better.

I swear I was about to jump through the t.v. last night and strangle all those screaming girls. I can't stand that anymore!
