Aw, man! I'm lumped in with the tweeners and the knock-kneed penguins? Well, it wouldn't be the first time.

I agree with you guys on Melinda. She is incredibly talented, and along with Jordin, she had the smoothest most powerful vocals on the show. I really like Simon, but he does need to pipe down.

When I'm watching or voting, I'm most drawn to the person who's cd I might actually think to purchase. Not necessarily the best voice, but there's that extra something..some kind of "oomph!" factor that reels me in. Of course, don't listen to me- I voted for Justin Guarini.
