Is the Fix in For Archuleta?

31. I think that with only 4 contestants left, the judges realize that the one with the best commercial potential is the one they will back. To the extent that the judges can influence voting, there is no question in my mind that David A. is their choice. I also believe that David C. has the best appreciation for music as an artist and Syesha could very well go onto the legitimate musical stage.

32. while i don't care for the kid at all, he (his dad) is very smart. he picks songs that are well known by all generartions. even teeny boppers have heard of elvis so his songs choices are brilliant. i would like to see for once (since kelly clarkson) the BEST performer win. that would be d. cook. at the same time i would hate to see him under the "control" of AI. he's too good for that.

33. When he sings, it sounds like he is using a scuba diving regulator.

35. if david wins i wont watch anymore..it seems so rigged this year and the talent is by far the worst i have ever seen.. how did dreadlock boy make it so far? jason castro is to busy looking"high" to take this competion seriously..david cook ugh.. please..syeesha she is good but sounds like everyone else already out there..i think after this season idol should shut down and make a different show start over or change the rules..with 12 year olds voting true talent will never win.

36. I find him very annoying. His "gosh, golly, gee whiz" attitude is nauseating. He would be good for the Mickey Mouse Club. I also see him as a future Wiggle.

But as much as I love David Cook, I agree that it would probably be in his best interest not to win.

37. This show is rigged he is nothing more than a wedding/kareoke singer and has no talent. He should have been one of the first voted off. IDOL sucks this year

38. Judges rave over David even when he hits a sour note; its over looked. If he wins, we will not be watching Idol next season. This has been a strange season and it appears to be rigged. I am disappointed!

39. Oh Pease American Idol.... If David Archuleta wins AI I will no longer watch it! COOK is the one here with the REAL STAR POWER!! I watched AI with my family and we were all shocked withthe judges comments. COOK ROCKED THE PLACE! HE is why we still tune in. Most of us know that the show is rigged for Archuleta to win but it will be COOK who s the winner in the long run...

I think that there are perverts running the show and they have a thing for Archuleta... What else I ask you could it be?

40. I don't care for him. His humble act is getting phony. He has no real personality. A lot of PR 'sizzle' and no real steak. I'm voting for David Cook!

41. David is too inmature for an Idol win. He is not commerically sound, unless you listen to the easy music channel. All he can sing are ballads. He is as bad as Paula when it comes to speaking. I say get him outta here. Or, on the other hand, let him stay and we will be sure not to hear of him again.

44. I can't stand that nasaly, whiny voice. He always sounds like he's gasping for air and what's with licking the lips all the time?? Gayvid Archuleta will probably win, but it will be David Cook who'll bring in the moola.
