How can you be "a little on the gay side"??? I think David Cook has become a good (not great) performer. For that reason I think he is ready to go and would benefit from not winning and being able to take charge of his own career going forward. I think David A. has a great voice and can sing just about anything but needs to work on his stage presence. He will do okay if he wins and they market him to the right audience (not 12 year olds more like 17-25). I love Syesha she should do great on broadway. I also think Jason has tanked the past couple of weeks on purpose. Don't know why he wanted out but it was obvious he did. Listen to his studio recordings. He really does a great job.
