I've commented at length in the previous thread about this (with the voting), but for me, a proper VFTW candidate comes down to: TOP 2[/u] Blind Scott - mediocre singer, looks like Paul Simon on meth, gives the producers agita over how to coreograph group numbers, and what to do with him, his guide, and his disabled fans on tour. Plus the judges can never speak bad to him, even when he is bad, because then they'll seem like abnormally evil assholes, instead of just plain old douchebags like they do now. Odds of Paula saying something offensive about him in the first three weeks: 3:1. Kumar - likeable guy; doesn't seem to be taking AI too seriously, has no problem grabbing his crotch, pounding his chest, singing about getting "nasty" with the ladies, etc. The judges fairly pimp him now, but as soon as a little dead weight disappears, they'll go Benedict Arnold on him, and it won't be pretty, especially because he really cannot sing. He's a much better entertainer than singer, and VFTW is about nothing if its not about good entertainment from bad singers. Plus he's got enough of a fan base now to give us good momentum for the first several weeks before the sheeptards turn on him too. DARK HORSE Allison ImonMetha - She's chubby. She's awkward. She has braces. I think. Best of all, she was a trainwreck when Seacrest tried to "interview" her on the couch, giving him looks like, "why are you asking me these douchebag dipshit questions, douchebag?" She's got a voice, but she's not <gasp> commercial, so she will soon be judge fodder. If she can continue to wear inappropriately tight and revealing outfits and play the role of dysfunctional and slow-witted jailbaiter, she may be a good VFTW pick. THE OTHER ONE Whoregay - Drama queen, not very interesting. Not one of my picks, but seems pretty popular. Got a good soliloquy out of Paula. Cried a lot. Spouted off in broken english. He doesn't do much for me, but if you pick him, I shall support you. But not happily. Forget Adam. He's a pimp pick, and therefore is not VTFW. When it gets down to Adam, Danny, Lil, Matt, Scott and Megan, then we can pick Adam with a clear conscience.
