Little David Achuleta is going to have a tough time knocking off big David Cook next week.  Cook has been very solid and seems to have way more confidence than Archuleta.  This may be due to the fact that he knows a little bit about slogging it out in dive bars and has a bit more life experience than his opponent.  Either way, David C. has the big edge on David A. right now. 

Could the tables turn?  Can young Dave pull off a seemingly impossible upset?  Sure he could because on television (and especially on Idol..) anything is possible.  I mean Taylor Hicks won the whole enchilada for Pete's sake and he's terrible.  So little David's fans should not give up hope.  In fact if they need to double up on the text's, blast out the bulletins on their myspace pages and you never know.  Cook appeals to a slightly older demographic that probably won't be voting multiple times so a come from behind win is not out of the question.

But if it plays out as it has so far, Cook is your new American Idol come Wednesday night at the Nokia Theater.  He'll be in the studio making that Switchfoot meets Nickleback sounding record in no time.

I definitely agree with your prediction... but I do expect young girls to come out in record #'s to vote for young Dave! They'll definitely make or break him.

Agree that David Cook should be the winner. David Archuleta as Melissa stated has a huge group of younger viewers that may put him ahead of David Cook. This is one of those roll the dice, no easy predictions. It could possibly turn out to be an upset where David Archuleta wins. Which wouldn't be all that bad. Historically the winner isn't always the one to go on to make the best records, etc. So that could be a good move financially and recording wise for David Cook. Something to think about at least.

Look at Chris Daughtry...I think David Cook would be better off if he doesn't win. He won't be at the mercy of the machine that is 19 Entertainment.

Can I vote for Simon...I want him to win! Okay, I'm with you folks...David Cook will win the day, but both Davids have super big careers on the way...so I don't think either of them will lose.

According to Kristine Galvan, I'm the station junk man. That's because I pick up all the assignments that everyone else avoids. But hey, it's a living. I'm a non-award winning, non-journalist and so far I like it that way.
