LaKisha has a great talent and may get a contract, or at the least, the attention and promotion she deserves.

But my girl hasn't made the right choices on Idol...

Her song choices have not been the best nor has she heeded the advice from those who were paid to give it.

For example, in the beginning, Lulu told her the better song was You're My World by Cilla Black. For the younger crowd among us, you will not know the song, but I am a product of the 60s and the 'British Invasion' and know the song well.

She would have jammed...

And there have been other things...singing the song recorded by Fantasia...not a good choice.

None of this takes anything from her gift. In this case it's her judgment that is called into question, and sadly it may cost her big time.

Melinda is awesome and is my choice to win Idol...

Melinda has indeed been a favorite pick when one thinks of who will ultimately win, and I agree. . .but I can also see Blake winning the whole thing. He has the 'look'. . .the sound. . . .he has definately grown on me during the last few weeks, especially last week's performance. Although I want Melinda to win, I would not be disappointed if Blake won instead.

I really like Blake too! Although, Lakisha is from Flint so I have a loyalty vote going on for her. Out of the 4 left, I think Jordin is the weakest link and think she should be next to go.

Yes, finally. . . .
I don't think our homegirl's going to make it. I hope she is not the next to go, though as I think she is better than Jordin. I agree with your assessment she has made some poor song choices. But whatever, the girl can still tear it up.

I hope LaKisha sings How Can You Mend A Broken Heart...she might nail it with that song...
