Casey Abrams

American Idol really is about creating a teeny booper idol.

I'm not sure they should allow the judges "vote" to count too much, but maybe a limit on votes, so the little girls with nothing better to do can't just sit and vote for 4 hours in 3 different ways. I would like my vote to count just as much. But , I don't have 4 hours to vote over and over for the truly talented person. (Like Casey) OK, I admit they are all pretty good this year, no "Sanjiah" in the bunch, and I'm sure they will all have pretty decent careers.

It just saddens me to see someone like Casey leave. I really liked Lauren at first, but she has not lived up to her potential and should have left before Casey. But life isn't fair.

While I'm on this topic let me "vent" about Pia. She left because she was boring. Yes she could sing. No doubt about it, but she only showed the same old thing over and over again. No range, no change no zing. I was not shocked at her departure at all.

I thought I wouldn't be happy with Simon gone,(the only one on the old panels who told the truth) but Steven and Jennifer are doing great.
