Watching the Adam and Kris showdown in the finale part one didn&#8217;t offer up any big surprised but for me it was still fun.</p>
<p>It did raise a few questions for me:</p>
<ol>
<li>Does anyone who is going to vote really change their vote at this point?</li>
<li>Does winning Idol help or hurt you?</li>
<li>Is the winning song required to be lame?</li>
<li>Why does the finale need to be two hours?</li>
</ol>
<p>So like we know, Adam has chops but there is def a styliness to him that not everyone is down with, and Kris is a good entertainer as long as he stays in his wheelhouse. Who&#8217;s going to take it? I think Adam is clearly the better talent and I&#8217;m tempted to give him the edge just for that. But America doesn&#8217;t always work that way and Kris might pick up more of Danny&#8217;s votes to go along with his girly fandom.</p>
<p>I guess we&#8217;ll all just tune in tomorrow night for two plus hours to find out who will be the next American Idol.</p>
