Those are the panic votes. Sympathy votes are when the contestant is panned/cries. I think Diana's the one in trouble next week and it won't be her fault. It's down to the fanbases now.

They are the ones who will buy the CDs., not the free opinion givers or the tepid voters. Thats one of the aims of Idol , creating fanbase to buy their faves CDs. Whoever can pull in the votes DESERVE to be where they are. Having said that I think Diana is taking a sizable chunk of fans who voted for Latoya, and can pull her own weight.

I agree totally Hippo (cute name, btw). Well, except I don't agree with 'deserve' in the sense it is usually meant. I think deserving implies some sort of work on their part rather than having natural advantages (eg being born good-looking/being of a certain race, that kind of thing). But as you say whoever wins will be the 'correct' winner in a sense, provided they don't have a phone-line fiasco like last year, when Ruben beat out Clay! And I hope what you say about La Toya's fanbase is true, cause I want Diana in the finals! Gooo, little rabid Diana fans, vote! ;D

umm..I think they are called Diana's posse. Jasmine's are called Jasmaniacs.

As for the 'deserving' part I stand by what I meant in the widest sense. By now we would have realised the star appeal is multi faceted. A combination of factors that somehow in total Jasmine managed to pip Latoya. Simon is dead on when he articulate that Latoya is not different enough. I very much doubt Jasmine can proceed next round if she do not up the ante to win over new numbers. If she could, good on her. The votes don't lie.

I'm just going into semantics here.. (I'm picky that way ). I'd say the winner is rightfully there. But she might not deserve it. I personally think the hardest worker is the one who deserves it - but then, she might not be the rightful winner. That's the difference. I'll stop being anal now. ;D

Though I may not wholly agree with you, you have shown intelligence and insight. That said, a lot of progress in this world is not made by hard workers. First past the post for me and I'll even accept Fanta.
