Phone lines do open up prior to finish of the show (about 5 minutes). You can get a lot of votes in that way. What is the strategy for next week's voting? It's not going to be a landslide win for either contestant. I realize you vote, vote, vote. With the three numbers last week, I got through a ton of times. I used one number over and over until I started getting busy signals and then I moved to one of the other numbers until the busy signal started, etc. etc. Each time i changed to another number, the votes went through. I was getting worried because it was so easy to get the votes through.
We all know Adam is the most talented contestant on the show. He should win the title — but it's a popularity contest more than anything. Most of the years, the fans get it right — some they don't. Not that Kris is a bad performer — I just don't get him. After watching and hearing Adam, everyone else sounds truly dull and boring.
The phone lines are usually open for 4 hours for the finale — that means some east coasters will have to stay up until 1 a.m. to cast their votes. How commited are Adam's fans? Will Kris' younger fans be able to text under the covers when they should be sleeping to get up and go to school on Wednesday? With Kris' onslaught of popularity these past few weeks, there is no front runner at this point. We need to make sure Adam wins the crown. Any other suggestions?
By the way, I agree that Adam has to show his tender side and perform a ballad. They may get to do three songs (and remember — the winner's single is released immediately). Some AI fans vote solely on the contestant who performed the best for that particular show. We all know Adam will bring it next week. He KNOWS how important this is.
