And you have to do this two times in a row. And the second time, James will be aware that you’re doing it, and probably won’t go down without a fight.

I honestly don’t think this group has either the balls or the smarts to pull of a maneuver like this once, much less twice. Todd probably has the smarts, but I doubt he’d put himself on the line like that.

Question: Everyone knows that James has two “American” Idols – why don’t they all just vote against him in the next two tribals to even the playing field? Maybe there’s something about the rules I don’t understand because the first thing I’d do is take away his edge any way I could.

I’m always a little disappointed when people who are on the chopping block don’t try to rework the numbers in their favor (or maybe the editors didn’t show us). It appeared that Frosti and Eric knew it would be one of them, but didn’t appeal to Denise or Courtney to flip based on their “outsider” positions on the core alliance.

I don’t have anyone I’m rooting for too strongly at this point, but I guess I’d like to see James win just to get Miss Alli’s panties in a bunch.
