"God Bless the Child" on Idol?

I always liked Haley, and she is getting better every week. Her problem is identity - she has been all over the map and this week completely out of the blue she does a rocker chick act. Although it worked out very well, my take is she is so obsessed with winning this whatever it takes, she deliberately went after the James Durbin votes this week. Does not hurt she is kinda cute and has an attitude either ....

Haley is a fighter and is the remaining one who has improved the most during the season.

Kelly Clarkson is the only Idol winner I have taken to to any great degree over the years and Haley is not too far removed from KC.

I will not object to whoever wins this year though which is a change from most years past.

Amen Mapman, you stated everything I was thinking as well.

How about Haley throw caution to the wind if she makes it to next week and do Clarkson's "My Life Would S--- Without You".

I bet she would kill it!

I am ready to buy the first release from Haley. Have been sinve the top "8". She could cut an album tomorrow and and sell 100,000 copies before the end of the year!

I think Scotty and Lauren will become 'also rans' in the Country genre after their initial releases.

Having said the above I agree that I am completely happy with whomever wins this year. All were great!!!!
