You stilll believe that the American public and their "votes" dictate the outcome of this show? tsk tsk tsk...



As you should know by now AI likes to do this at least once a season - throw out the "SHOCKING" revelation that a popular contestant got "voted off." I can't believe he/she got voted off!!ZOMG!!!!!1!!ONE!!!

All this tactic is structured to do is cause the people who are currently voting to vote more and to hopefully entice a few apathetic or on the fence non-voters to pick up the phone and give AI some additional revenue... because we all know, "if you don't vote look what can happen - don't let this happen to your favorite idol."

That said, sure there are other contestants who should have gone home before Michael Johns, but he wasn't going to win the show anyway. Don't worry about ol' Michael either... I'm sure a record producer will have him in studio by the end of the week and he'll probably turn up on a daytime soap opera soon.
