I agree completely with the idea that with better song choice lakisha could have done much better. in a week when no one really blew the doors off, if lakisha had formulated a game plan and picked songs which lended to her strengths (assuming there are b.g. songs that fit that category), she could have made herself the favorite with her strong vocals. I just don't think she was ever as calculated and thoughtful about her song choices as they related to strategy and vote-getting as melnida or blake. (granted, I think blake made a mistake this week, but that is really neither here nor there.)
