Why give the crown to someone who only went to the audition to ‘hang out’ with his brother(david cook). Let’s help DA realise his dream and give his career a great headstart.
vote 4 david a.
Hello Idol fans- It seems that I can not decide who I want to vote for tonight. Archuleta is good, and Cook is too. I will probably end up voting for both of them, but which one will I vote one extra for? I guess at the end of the show tonight- I will decide. It sure would have been nice to have Diana DeGarmo on to sing. She is the one that got me hooked on Idol to begin with! Good luck to both Davids tonight! Put on a good show! Thanks, Ellen
travtrev, ur so rite ma man!!!
he is an a**hole!!!!
cook is a FRAUD!!!!
Ellen, no need to panic.its simple,its archuleta whom you should be voting.
problem solved!
PS:dont even cast one single vote for cook at all.
It should go to the artist that will sell more records. That would be David Cook. Who, aside from the pre-teens, is going to buy David A songs?
WE will…DUH!!!
guess wat, im not a preteen!
MY VOTES GO to ——>>>
DAVID COOK !!!!!
in your face, mamalotus
IT’S A NO-BRAINER. COOK IS THE ONE. TIME FOR A ROCKER TO WIN. DAVID A. IS A NICE KID, BUT HE IS A KID, TOO YOUNG TO HANDLE THE PRESSURE.
VOTE FOR DAVID COOK!!!
dude…STICK WITH ONE NAME!!!
we know there is only one person here who is posting the good remarks for cook…THAT’S YOU!!!!
dont fool us!
It is absolutely sickening for anyone to suggest that David Cook has progressed because of pity votes or that he has used his brother’s cancer in any way to get ahead. It is a fact that David’s brother is very ill, but David has never spoken about that during the show and has only answered a question outside of the show when it was asked. He is a fantastic talent, clearly a gentleman and I fully agree with Bo (another of my favorites) that the winner should be David Cook all the way.
reality check:
ARCHULETA is ready to win american idol this year and this wednesday in the finale!
he deserves it as he cares about it unlike cook who hasn’t got a dream to persue here…he is just a mere co-incidence!!!!
VOTE FOR THE DESERVING:DAVID ARCHULETA THAT IS.
and speaking of sympathy votes, wat the f**k with the whole david cook’s “HAPPY BELATED MOTHER’S DAY, MOM” huh?
THAT was just too CORNY!!!
no, seriously!
COOK certainly knows the “DEVIOUS” tricks to flatter up the innocent minds.
WAT a CREEP!
AMERICA, dont get into his whole “im-so-emotional-and-caring” tricks.
he knows those dirty tricks wud fool america!
ARE YOU READY TO BE FOOLED, AMERICA?
