Count me among those who do not feel Adam is a lock. I genuinely feel that Kris has a chance.
-- many viewers are fed up with the judges and producers setting this up for an Adam victory
-- Gokey's fans will mostly move to Kris if they continue to vote
-- as someone who has found herself living in "middle America..." virtually everyone I talk to in my town is pulling for Kris because he reminds them of the clean-cut guy next door. People here don't seem to be able to relate to Adam. Close minded on their parts? Sure. But their votes count just as much.
-- Kris *is* a legitimately good singer. Oh, and he doesn't scream. He has built a strong fan base despite no pre-show publicity/air-time and lukewarm responses by the judges.
The bigger mystery tonight is why the show has to not only be 2 hours long but also go over? Really? When all we want is the 5 second announcement of the winner? Good grief.
