i've been a cook fan from the beginning. i think he SHOULD win. but will he? no. here's why:
a) his fan base - too old. not the "text and call constantly to vote for the entire 4 hour voting period" like his competition's fan base. i do, however, think both the davids have equally large mobs of screaming girls - all fainting at the mere thought of them.
b) his vocal technique - i've been concerned about this for quite some time. that raspy, dare i say sexy, sound means there's some serious damage happening. that was made very apparent tonight when he barely screamed out song #2. get that boy some throat coat and 3 weeks of vocal rest, stat.
based solely on tonight's performances, archuleta takes it hands down. and that's how i think it will play out tomorrow. and there you have it. i now call archuleta season 7's american idol.
that will be $100 please.

That is crazy that you noticed that David Cook's voice is getting messed up. Andrew Lloyd Webber said the same thing tonight, that he was damaging his voice. I guess I am amongst the teenage girls that stay and vote all four hours, because I hope little David wins.
I Becca, Aunt Lois here. I guess I was one of those stay and vote girls (not exactly pre-teen or even teen for that matter) But I did vote over 200 times most nights. I voted for David A. every time. Then when it got down to the two. I thought that he needed to go home and finish school and serve a mission. David C. has what it takes to be the "Idol" right now. If his voice holds out. Hope things are going well for you Becca. Love ya.
Isn't my mom a hoot? I got her addicted to Idol, so it's my fault. Anyway, so glad David C won! Though I agree with the long-term vocal damage, it is still oh-so-nice to listen to, isn't it?
