Everyone likes different things, but, I think America got it exactly right. Those who loved Brooke and Jason protected them on an off night performance. Many who liked Carly, still didn't connect enough to vote. I think Carly had the best vocal instrument in the competition, but, I didn't like her as a person. She was too full of herself and too wired which often made her voice, although powerful and pretty, too shrieky and sharp. Brooke and Jason have soul and tender qualities which define stars above other performers who by the millions perform in regional theaters and cruise ships and bars and .... I'm not sorry to see Carly go. It was her time. Buh-bye.
