I still do not understand how the Americans voted off Carly and Mike before the 2 pain in the neck blond girls. What a bad taste! It looks like this show was all set up for both Davids to go to finals. I just hope that the Americans don't do wrong again and send David boring Archuletta home. The final should be between Seyesha and Cook (the best and more original of all).

David A all the way!!! He is the best

David Cook for the Win!!

David Archuleta will be the next american idol! He is the one to beat. He has been the favorite from the beginning. Yes he is young but he is far from being boring "ANA". By the way ANA do you even vote!!!

david cook deserves to win. he has more experience and he can sing literally anything, and make it sound great. and he's hott and funny. i love him. i think both of the david's are talented and they both can sing. but david a is to young, unexpirenced, and i dont think many people will buy his albums. hes to young to handle all the pressure. HE IS STILL IN HIGHSCHOOL! for heavens sake, vote for david cook! (:

My vote for David A cause he is different and think he is really pasionate about singing unlike David C who was only lucky that he has talent. He dont look sincere when he sing, is just that he happen to be good at it. There are aready so many rock singer like David C like Daughtry and I dont think I will like to buy another album of that kind. Best of luck to both but my vote is to David A.... love u, love u, love u

David A. should win, who cares about experience, he is the whole package. The young people are the ones spending money on albums, Go David A. the world loves you and your perfect voice. What does it matter if he is in High School, many great performers started right out of diapers. Both are talented young men both will have great careers now it is just a matter of opinion.

David Archuleta should win. He is more different than David Cook who sounds like Chris Daughtry. There are too many people like David Cook in the industry. Archie should win as he is a very good singer. Disney should also get him for a Disney Channel Original Movie.

I definitely hope David Cook wins. I'm from Canada and unfortunately cannot vote but DC is enormously more talented. DA has a so so voice and is so boring to watch on stage. Go DC....

This is a vocal music competition and David A. has the best vocals. He is young, but sounds very mature when he sings. He's ready and a very genuine person. David Cook is good, but sings the same type of songs. David A. goes out on a limb and trys a few new things.
PZ | 10:04 p.m. May 18, 2008
I think David A. should win. He is young, but sings with a very mature voice. David Cook sounds the same as any other rocker. David A. has real vocal talent. He's also genuine and will be a great role model for young people. David Cook, seems to take it all for granted.

We love David A. in Japan. His dad maybe a stage dad but Judy Garland had a stage mom and she became an icon. Come on David A. We are praying for him!

I am so tired of everyone saying that all David A has in supporters are teenagers. I am not a teenager and I have never saw a more sincere singer than him. Yes he is young but think about how good he will be in a few years. To me, he is excellent already. Go David A..

DAVID ARCHULETA all the way!
He's young, innocent, good natured, sweet, down to earth, humble, and that's not even beginning to describe how outstanding his vocal ability is. I feel like he wants to win this so bad and I want to see him show his passion to the world through his music. David Cook is good, don't get me wrong, but I think David A characterizes all of the traits an American Idol should have. He would represent America well. I admire his innocence and humility. He's only 17, but a role model for all.

David Archuleta is the one who wants it the most. He's been working for it for a long time. He should win.
meee | 10:59 a.m. May 20, 2008
David A is way to young and who wants a stage dad constantly?! David C has much more talent and is all around a better performer. If David A should win than America made a huge mistake. David A is to boring to listen too. David C is original and can turn any boring song into something real where as David A won't make to much of a difference. David A needs more practice and experience before taking on such a serious career where as David C is ready to make it big! David A is very talented but not enough for Hollywood. Go David C!!!

David cook all the way. he rocks. vote for him guys.

David Cook SHOULD win, but probably won't. If you close your eyes and listen to them, Cook has a style and voice you can recognize, Archuletta is unrecognizable, doesn't stand out, beautiful voice, but like elevator music. Cook is like a Whitney Houston, Louis Armstrong, or the many other unique singers that you instantly recognize when you hear them! Sorry David Cook! This is one grandma who never voted before, but voted last night and did NOT vote for Archuletta!
