It is at trying times like these that I am so glad that I am not (yet) an American!What were you people thinking? Super hottie Chris Daughtry gets booted from American Idol and the ultimate wedding singer Taylor Hicks is still in the running? Isn't this type of travesty the reason why CBS stopped the public voting off the (interesting) houseguests on Big Brother after Season 1. Isn't this the reason I haven't watched Idol since season 1 (damn you Mikey and Tony for getting me hooked). This whole debacle reminds me of the similar ousting of Tamara Gray that first year (yes, I know she got a guest spot on Boston Public, but still).
Chris has been the one consistent performer on the show this season. OK, so he's had a couple of average songs (due to poor song choice rather than performance). OK, so he's been in the bottom two before. OK, sometimes his jeans are just that bit too tight that his package is clearly visible. But please, to be voted off at this late stage... It's just ridiculous. He should have made it to the final two (with Elliot), and if, as many seem to be predicting, Taylor does become the next American Idol, America will have created just another Ruben Studdard and not a new Kelly Clarkson, as Chris clearly could have been!

It's a sad, sad day. If Katherine McPhee doesn't win, expect Taylor or Elliot to be the next Justin Guirini.
