vassa says:
NO the american idol, that I saw they will take the winner from (no where) that they will have no big problem after, like dislike to dominate or lawsuit.
this might be David A to win, David C has background, too much to control.
JASON has wide range of market if he doing good, that I can see.

Leslie says:
Jason does not fit the mold of American Idol. He knows that, and probably feels trapped now. He is very talented and is the victim of AI. It is kind of a tragedy in a way. Jason needs to go out on a good note though. I hope he makes it through, but only if he wants to. I am disappointed in what has happened to Jason. It was painful because I know he has more to share.

No, but he should definitely continue singing and playing guitar. This guy is talented and I would love to hear his songs on the radio.

American Idol is weird this year. The great ones, I fear have no careers in music. Would you buy a David Archuleta album? he is super talented and cute as a button, but I don't think that he has what it takes to make and sell millions.
But the question was, should jason castro be the next american idol. He should yes, but no. I don't think he will. He has a good voice, and a quiet passion. But I think his timid demeanor may prevent him from gaining that all important title. If he breaks out of his shell... I will break my 7 year not voting streak and give one for his team.

Oh,you know. :) says:
He is amazing, but I think Archuleta will end up winning. But i LOVE Jason Castro's voice & of course I gotta say he is SO CUTE! His eyes= GORGEOUS. lolzz. :D Most people can't pull of his hairstyle, but it suits him so well!
