		<description>I take it you didn't read the JORDIN SPARKS CONSPIRACY post.  Until you can show me the vote totals to prove that the harmonic convergence of teenage girls and Howard Stern fueled pervs supporting Sanjaya was crushed legitimately, I have as strong a case that American Idol is fixed as the Corrupt Practices Information Bureau had against those players fixing Singapore soccer matches in 2000!</description>

		<description>Hi, I'm writing from Singapore... I followed this season closely... and I was so sure it would be a melinda competing against lakisha or jordin in the final...&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;I think marketability is (sadly) everything...even when we had our local version of Idol, the better singers got voted off.. sometimes i think because most of the voters in my country are young girls, they'd vote for the good-looking male singers and get much better female singers kicked out...The host of our local idol show was practically begging the viewers to vote for the best talent... &lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;so it's possible that u may not have a strong case for the "rigging" theory &#038; perhaps, the viewers did ultimately get the final say in the U.S.</description>

		<description>I still think the song the Producers picked for Blake and Jordin reveals an attempt to curry favor for their favorite.  Also, the Producers continually fail to reveal the vote totals, so they could easily have nipped a Sanjaya and Taylor Hicks in the bud...if they weren't busy smoking bud!</description>

		<description>No, I don't think it's a fix with a boy/girl finale. But I do believe that the power of a small rabid fanbase which dedicate themselves to powervoting million of votes by foul means can decide a win. Thus Taylor Hics, Sanyaja and other less talented contestants remain while true contestants like Melinda are gone.</description>
