Well, Archuleta will win.

Cook bombed. His 3rd song choice needed to be great and it wasn't. He should of done Billy Jean or something that he could make his own. That song would of been great for the top 8, but in the finale that isn't good enough. His 2nd song was just crap.

I think Archuleta needs this win more than Cook because Archuleta needs to be packaged and marketed right considering how raw he is. I'm sure he'll be made up into a teenage heartthrob in no time. I still think Cook will do well, possibly better, than Archuleta, it just depends how well Archuleta does.

This season was kinda anti-climactic really. The two we expected to make the final did and then when the final came it was a blowout.

Show is scripted. It was written all over Cook's face.

I actually think Cook has it on lockdown. It's funny how we flip-flopped. He is more popular but Archuletta is more talented. But, he has the personality of a wall and Cook is a heart throb.

I thought his third song was good. I kind of liked his second song too. I really like that song and that is the kind of record that he'll sell several million of. Archuleta was a weiner and sang the same song twice. I think thats really dumb and kind of a cop-out.

We'll see tomorrow, but I've got my money on Cook heading into the event.

Archuleta sang very well, but he sang 3 ballets. That all he can sing.

Cook showed his versatlily. He sang 3 very different songs.

Archuleta will most likely win. That has pretty much been a forgone conclusion for since the beginning. Cook will be the star! He has much more personality & range to become more successful.

Wow, did not see that coming. Cook by 12 million votes? Wow. I was shocked.

Good for him, though, he's the best all-around performer of the two.

Yeah, David Cook wins!!!

Both David's are very talented in their own way though.

I'm taking my niece to the Idol concert tour next month. Should be a good time.

OT but Ticketmaster charged me $12 for each ticket as a convenience fee. Plus $5 order fee. WTF is so convenient about that??

Whoever did Let it Be....should have let it been.

I thought she was fantastic. Are you sure you aren't getting her mixed up with the Oregon girl? She needs to go crawl back under an umbrella.... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=19FD4h3_444

She's a good singer, but she shouldn't of played the piano. Let me say in the first place, the contestants shouldn't be allowed to play instruments. It is a singing competition and letting a contestant play their own instrument gives them an unfair advantage. In the case of this girl, she should of left the piano. She could play the song, but not in the way that she could play piano and sing naturally at the same time. She was focusing more on the piano part than the singing part.

And the prostitute is Ramiele Malubay. Looks like somebody you'd find in the Red Light District of Bangkok.

I rarely reply to pure rascist ignorance, but if you are gonna insult someone and smear them based soley on their race you might as well get it right. Ramiele is phillipino not thai. And being thai or phillipino and automatically being assosciated with prostitution is a gross and disgusting display of ignorance and intolerance on your part.

Try living your life in an impoverished corrupt 3rd world country for awhile then talk stupid. I feel a ton of pity for these girls who are often sold into prostitution as teenagers and sick pervs like you not only make it possible by paying for it, but propagate the crime by branding any young asian girl a prostitute with no reason to make such an assertion what so ever. I am not for censorship, but I do believe in pointing out what a complete disgusting piece of shit you come across as when you exercise your first amendment right.

You've been here for not even 3 weeks. Don't try judging what person I am and what level of "ignorance" I omit. If you find that kind of joke offensive, sorry, but if you get offended by something like that than you're going to find yourself offended a lot on this forum. I'm not trying to be harsh or mean or anything like that, I'm glad to have you at PR, but don't go out trying to judge somebody on your 8th post. I've been here for two years and people sure as hell know I would never say anything like that with purposefully cruel intentions.

Yes, the number of posts you have excuses your offensive speech, my bad. Forgive me if I believe there is a special place in hell for those who sexually exploit or imply that its somehow normal to sexually exploit certain disadvantaged people.

[BallHawk]

Yes, making a joke about prostitution is the same as pimping prostitutes, right.

Chill out dude, it was a joke, if he offended you, then im sure hes sorry.

I'll accept that he meant nothing by it. I work with enough asian women that have to put up with the sucky sucky long time crap from people who saw full metal jacket too many times and I know it does hurt them. Maybe I am simply sensitive to it because I witness it firsthand on a damn near daily basis, but I would bet if I had said the show has a hubcap thief someone would have all been all over me.

I tend to think that we are all too PC most of the time, but to call a girl a thai prostitute for the simple fact that she is asian still offended me. I guess I'll let it go with this post and get back to posting on politics and football. Like I said, I don't usually bother with this stuff but believe me...I was seriously offended and I don't get offended easily.
