			<description><![CDATA[ Well so I just wanted to say that I heard on a recent edition of &quot;Inside Edition&quot; that David Archuletta has signed a recording contract.
Unfortunately I can&#39;t recall for which label they said.....but so here we go! Soon he&#39;ll be hittin&#39; the airwaves...... ]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[ The news commentary on the internet said he won because the viewing audience consisted of older women who thought he was hot and thought of  David A more as a
son.  One said she used both her text phone and home phone and both her daughter&#39;s phones and voted over 400 times.  That&#39;s why I quit voting. 
It&#39;s not how many people vote, but how rich they are to be able to pay for the texting and how quick they are to dial.  I thought Cook was more of  a
potential success,  but I... ]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[ I thought the duet was great too between Brooke and Nash. I liked the first hour better than the second - ZZ Top rocks! Donna Summer was looking a bit chunky I
thought but her voice is still excellent!
<br>
<br>
What exactly was it with David Cook and his brother during the auditions? His brother did and then they asked David to sing also or something? I don&#39;t
recall - sometimes I am cooking something to eat if I had a late day, and didn&#39;t always catch everything in the auditions. ]]></description>

<br>
<br>
And yeah Shane they&#39;l both get record deals if they don&#39;t have them already <img src="http://www.ezboard.com/intl/aenglish/images/emoticons/wink.gif">

I was so happy David Cook won though. I almost cried hahaha. ]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[ Well, maybe. If that&#39;s the case, then Simon&#39;s heaping all that praise on &quot;Archie&quot; kind of backfired on him. Sometimes Simon&#39;s opinion
doesn&#39;t have the weight that some think it does.
<br>
<br>
In any case, the results are kind of moot. It&#39;s a title, and it&#39;s nice to be the winner, but we know darned well that they&#39;ll both be releasing
albums and I&#39;m sure both will do just fine. In fact, there are several Idol runners up that seem to do just as well,... ]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[ &quot;Archie&quot;  as they are now calling him was much the best last night.  I see a great improvement in him.  I liked him all along, but his delivery is a
lot better now.  At least his vocal delivery.  I didn&#39;t  think much of his jerky movements in the first song.  But he didn&#39;t do it in the other two. 
If I were to vote it would be for him.  I think David Cook could take coming in second better than David A.  David A seems to be more sensitive,  mainly
because he is still a... ]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[ I don&#39;t think the 2 Davids were in the bottom 3 either. Either one has a market - Archuletta for the young girls, and Cook for rock, that&#39;s what I
figure.
<br>
<br>
But now here&#39;s something - the higher you go in the line up, one still gets a recording contract and then the top 10 go on tour....probably a few will be
able to get recording contracts from the top ten. The year Taylor Hicks got it, Chris Doughtry (sp?) is heard more it seems to me......where is Hicks? Same
with... ]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[ I don&#39;t know if this means that they <em>favor</em> Cook more, but it seems like the judges never fail to bring up how young David A. is...as if that has
anything to do with it. You either have got &quot;it&quot;, or you don&#39;t.
<br>
<br>
Have either of them ever been in the bottom 3 at any point this season? I don&#39;t seem to recall either of them there. ]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[ I want David Cook to win but David Archuleta seems like a nice kid.  I agree, it could go either way.  I was wondering..which of the two do you think Randy,
Paula &amp; Simon want to win?  I think it&#39;s David A. but sometimes the comments they give David C. makes me think they favor him. ]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[ I expected it to come down to the two Davids.  I should root for David Cook, as he auditioned in Omaha, but I just can&#39;t vote for someone whose lyrics I
can&#39;t understand.  I knew the last song he sang and I still couldn&#39;t understand him.  So I guess my vote goes to David Archuleta.

finale.

<br>
I&#39;m torn as to who will wind up winning, though. I&#39;m rooting for Cook, but I can see it going either way.

It&#39;ll probably be close like the Ruben/Clay finale from season 2. ]]></description>
