Lakisha's had such a fall from grace. But I don't think she's nearly as likable as Jordin or Melinda (my faves!!)

I think Sgt. Gollum is due.

Go home Justin Timberlake wannabe.

ah i lovee blake and jordin!!!

When they'd gotten to the final 10(?) I made a guess who I'd thought would be top 3, just by looking at them (I don't watch it), so far they're still there.

I think LaKisha has really lost it the past few weeks- she was really overconfident and keeps screaming out her songs. She's undeniably a good singer, but I don't know if she's really been trying to "connect" to the audience lately. I think she's going tonight.

Blake left a lot to be desired last night. Phil was suprisingly awesome! I'm a Chris fan though! Love him...and the fact that he's from here...maybe I'm bias.

nooooooooooooo... not my kiki!

How many weeks do we have left? I'm hoping Fox chooses NOT to ruin the feel good "Idol gives back", and pulls a surprising "Nobody goes home tonight deal". Who wants to watch two hours of uplifting charity stuff culminating in...someone being kicked off? Bummer.

Not sending someone home might be the surprise that they've been talking about. But, if that's not the case, my bet is on Lakisha.

Lakisha should go home. She hasnt improved at all. She's taking steps backwards as far as the competition is concerned.

i would be happy if either phil or chris went home.

aw i hope chris doesnt go home.. hes such a cutie pie!!! I hope Blake goes home.. Phils voice is too good for him to go... melinda has a good voice but it doesnt seem like she REALLY connects with the songs in a way that Jordin does.. Jordin is my fav.. i hope she wins it all!

Can I say Chris Richardson going Home and Lakisha After that, Watch Jordin Beat everyone including Melinda in the Finale.

Underdog ~ I totally agree. My top choice to leave is Chris, followed by Lakisha. I don't think Blake will win though he is my favorite.

Ok - LaKisha will be going home tonight. She just seems so...removed. Her personality just comes across as flat and disconnected. I am hoping for a Blake and Melinda finale. They are both great and very different from each other. I think next to go, I hate to say, will be Chris. I like him, I just don't get very excited about his vocal stylings, ya know?

I'd love for Blake to win. I like Chris but I don't think he's as good of a singer as the rest. Phil should go home. LaKisha should go next. I'm not really a fan of Melinda, she can sing but she doesn't do anything for me. Jordin is good too, so it should be Blake and Jordin in the finals. Bottom 3 tonight: Phil, LaKisha, Chris, with Phil leaving, if they even send someone home tonight.

I was thinking the same thing after this week's theme. Pretty ironic that they're singing songs of inspiration but someone still gets the boot. I'm voting on Lakisha this week. I just think her fan base isn't as big as some of the others and her performances have been too average to win her big votes based on that.
