America got it right!
Little David was adorable. He also had a bunch of talent, especially for his age, but there is no arguing that Big David was the one to win. He is a true proffessional through and through.
I was afraid Archuleta would win by the simple fact that millions of teenie-boppers around the world thought he was cute. But it seems America has their head screwed on tight this year. Kristi won Dancing with the Stars, and David Cook won American Idol. Both contestants proved they were the best, not only in personality appeal, but in sheer talent.
So congratulations David Cook. I’m proud to call you my American Idol.

Although I felt that David Archuleta had a stronger performance on Tuesday’s show, if you take the whole thing into consideration Cook was absolutely the right choice. Let’s face it, he had this thing in the bag after he punched Lionel Richie in the face.
But I think we can all agree that in the end we were all losers for having to see David Archuleta dance around in his underwear during that Guitar Hero ad. Yikes!

Shane: You are completely right! Not that Cook’s whitey-tighties made my night, but Archuleta just didn’t make it look as cool as Cook did!
