I don't think it's a good indicator at all. Clay Aiken had a massively bigger online audience than Ruben Studdard, but Ruben still won.

I don't get all the love for Caleb. I found him average at best and he was rude to Chris Martin...

They are having Murphy back as a guest performer this sunday

I dont know whose decision it was to invite him if its the judges' I guess its their way of admitting their mistake in cutting him.

I dont care much for the remaining 3, Chayce is Ok the other 2 are not my thing at all

I reckon I wont be alone in tuning in solely to catch Murphy so ....good call AI

I want Chayce to win but I think Willie will take it home

[NYSinger]

Ugh I am so mad. I wanted Willie to win!

[McGowdog]

I actually thought Willie should have won. MrsGowdoggie predicted Chayce would win, something about a Country Fan backlash or something.

I'm sort of shocked.

I turned it off when Grace was eliminated but I recorded it so I can go back and watch when I'm in the mood again. Hopefully many will be able to work in the industry after this exposure. I'm okay with Chayce as the winner.

Recently saw a local blurb that a previous Idol winner was performing at some small farm event. Kind of made me sad. I didn't watch that year and didn't recognize the name.

I think the final winner was the right choice. Chayce seems to have the talent, image, and stamina that it takes in that competitive music business.

2nd and 3rd might be better off. At least they are not tied up to Idol with a long term contract.
