I still believe Idol is not fixed, but conspiracy theorists can hang their hat on that piece of crap tune that was the songwriting winner. Right in Jordin's wheelhouse, and so outside of Blake's. He should have beat-boxed it, rapped it, anything other than play that piece of dreck straight. I think Blake had a slight lead going into the last song, but Jordin's last performance was pretty decent all the way through (such a rarity for her). Yeah, Blake's range as a singer is limited. Then again, a lot of famous, good singers have limited range. Jordin's weakness in stage presence is stronger than any singing weakness Blake has.
Bottom line: Simon did his best to build suspense, but I'm guessing Jordin, 53-47. And frankly, I don't see a Clarkson- or Underwood-level career for any of the final 10.
