There were a few small mistakes but she was still phenomenal.

Even though I didn't want Nagasu to go above, I don't think she deserved such a low score when her program was clean. And why the heck was Rachael Flatt in 7th place?? Oh well.
You were not the only "bad" American. DoctorD and I were chatting on Yahoo at the time and we both wanted Joannie to make the podium. I don't know how she held it together enough to skate or deal with her situation. I think the judges felt the same way, hence the lower Nagasu score.

Rachell Flatt skated well technically but she lacked grace and ease last night. Maybe it was the choreography of her program, but her movements just seemed more stilted or something.
