Oh no I just knew i should not have read this post!  

We in Turkey are a week behind the program showing so I was awaiting the finale!  

Well that will teach me to be so nosey!...lol

See Ron,  you couldn't resist to throw KW in your post?

Is the brainwashing procedure painful at KW training? (lol)

I hadn't kept up with it but did see her win. She was good so I am glad.

I picked her from about half-way through this series. I enjoyed the show except the two songs that Kelly Clarkson sang would have gotten her booted off if she had been in the contest. And what was going on with her pants during the second song?

All a lot of the extra singers last night would have been booted off the show for their performance. I'm glad she won, she was the better of the two.

I guess I'll stand alone in my suport of Blake.  True, Jordan is a better singer.. but performance is also important.  I believe that Jordan will fade into the background as another nice voice.  But I think Blake could have a career as a performer.  Just look at the difference between Taylor Hicks and Chris Daughtry.  Or Clay Aiken and Ruben Studdard.  Just being a good singer does not make the public want to watch you (more than once).

I liked them both, but liked Blake more.  He was different and original.  They will both do well in their careers.
