how many of last year's would win this year?

[smbruin22]

i so much enjoyed last year's more..... and without sanjaya, i would have written that first line weeks ago.

wondering how many contestants from last year would be the clear leader or at least right in the thick of things?

thinking daughtry, hicks, mcphee would run away with this year's competition...... elliott and paris i think would be the favorites..... and even pickler might be a strong contender (that might be pushing it though)

has AI run out of good contestants? seems to me you need voice, looks and charisma in the real world of music..... does one contestant remaining even combine voice with looks OR charism....

just my opinion, but the judge's excitement over jordan is laughable. completely scripted if you ask me. and i was pulling for jordin months ago when she was underdog. but now her push is comical, at least to me.
