Get your picks in by 9 pm ET. Congrats and good luck tonight! Remember, first prize is an iTunes gift card!

Who is staying for sure? Decent performances plus judges pimping = David Cook isn’t going anywhere. Who is a long shot to leave? David Archuleta.  It’s a long shot, but little David could possibly have been lost in the shuffle of last night’s confusing show.  But, his fan base is pretty strong, so probably not. Who is probably safe tonight? Syesha Mercado, who will probably be saved by a combination of decent performances, the pimp spot and Simon’s attempt to throw her under the bus. Who else is probably safe tonight? Jason Castro. His fan base went apoplectic when Paula Abdul screwed up and judged his second performance before he performed it live. He probably got the attention of a few casual AI viewers as well. Who is going home. Brooke White easily had the worst performance of the night, with “I’m a Believer”. Her second performance, “I Am…I Said” was good, but somehow, I think Brooke will be lost in the shuffle as voters, believing they are on the bubble, try to save Jason and Syesha.

Going home tonight: Brooke White.

    MJ, from your mouth to God’s ear. Just please, anyone but Jason!

    I have a feeling Cocky’s fanbase got a tad complacent last night. Ugh, never in my life have I hoped to be wrong so badly. Please break that curse, dear…

    Going home tonight: Brooke White.

    Oh, I HOPE. I can’t stand her anymore.

    Although it’s not a result I’m especially pleased about MJ, I think your take on the situation is spot on. Brooke will go home tonight. No way do I think Jason is going home after the way Paula lit a fire under his fan base. And, Simon guaranteed that Syesha won’t go home.

    The ONLY chance Brooke has at another week, is if the golden child really did get lost in the chaos. Archie’s performances were so lacklasture, that I believe the only people voting for him last night were his committed fans. I don’t think he picked up much of the casual vote. (And, of course this is mostly just my wishful thinking LOL).

    I’m putting all my points on Brooke, but I don’t feel confident.

  5. 5 tinawina Apr 30th, 2008 at 7:45 pm

    MJ, I think you are dead on. I already put all my points on Brooke.

    I do agree there is an outside chance for an Archie upset, but I pray that doesn’t happen. Jason and Brooke would get the backlash from hell for that, and as a fan of both I am loathe to see something like that happen.

    My only concern now is that Brooke get a record deal. Oh mighty MJ, what do you think? Does she stand a decent shot?

  6. 6 St.Lucia Apr 30th, 2008 at 7:47 pm

    All mine are on Brooke too, and I didn’t even have any iffy moments about doing so either.

    I’m not sure if this is just me fully believing that Brooke is going home(which I’m not entirely sure), or just me not being able to bear to put any points under Jason’s name.

    Apparently this is why I don’t gamble: Too much of a heart.

    I guess I don’t want to put any points under Jason’s name until I ABSOLUTELY have to….which is next week.

    I don’t know if I should put it all on Brooke or split them with Jason.

    Brooke, I believe, is going to be one of the few contestants this year who will get a major label contract. If she gets good songs, I can totally hear her on the radio. She’s got a great recording voice…she’s Brooke White! lol

  8. 8 pj Apr 30th, 2008 at 7:49 pm

    If David A were to go home, I wouldn’t mind losing the 20 points AT ALL. :devil_tb:

  9. 9 dante Apr 30th, 2008 at 7:52 pm

    If DA goes home I will not drink any Diet Coke or eat any chocolate for a month! Amen

  10. 10 CarieB Apr 30th, 2008 at 7:53 pm

    All my points are on Brooke as well. Last night I was definitely one of the “apoplectic” Jason fans to whom mj refers. I’ve been dead wrong the past two weeks though, so maybe I should go counter-intuitive? Decisions, decisions. Gah!

  11. 11 Bobbi Apr 30th, 2008 at 7:53 pm

    LOL! Me either, pj!

  12. 12 SpenserJ Apr 30th, 2008 at 7:56 pm

    If David A were to go home, I wouldn’t mind losing the 20 points AT ALL.

    LOL PJ - you’re a good woman to make such a sacrifice.

    The good thing is - if Brooke does go home tonight, at least I can be happy for you and your 20 points :)

  13. 13 pj Apr 30th, 2008 at 8:00 pm

    If DA goes home I will not drink any Diet Coke or eat any chocolate for a month! Amen

    I’m with you! There’s always pom juice and fizzy water, after all!

    The good thing is - if Brooke does go home tonight, at least I can be happy for you and your 20 points :)

    Awww, thanks. I’m okay with her going. I’ll buy her record!

  14. 14 Hisaki Apr 30th, 2008 at 8:06 pm

    Hmm, maybe it’s about time I actually participated in the pool (not that I would get anywhere, LOL). Then again, I still have been dead wrong with the eliminations every single damn week (minus with Chikezie, but I was thinking Ramiele was more in trouble).

  15. 15 Sarah Apr 30th, 2008 at 8:19 pm

    If DA goes home I will not drink any Diet Coke or eat any chocolate for a month! Amen

    LOL. You are better than me. I do not function without my Diet Coke in the morning - especially on Wednesday’s after I’ve been up late voting the night before LOL.

    I put all 20 of my points on Brooke. I think she’s gone tonight.

  16. 16 jersey Apr 30th, 2008 at 8:23 pm

    20 points on Brooke here, too. Think positive (sorry Brooke).

  17. 17 St.Lucia Apr 30th, 2008 at 8:53 pm

    If DA goes home I will not drink any Diet Coke or eat any chocolate for a month! Amen

    I’d give up Chocolate for DA going home. Diet Coke…not so much.
    But to be nice, I might not have as MUCH Diet Coke if DA goes home. :) Ha.

    I have a bad feeling about the Debra Byrd interview being a precursor to Jason’s elimination tonight.

    I pray that I am wrong.

  19. 19 lilq Apr 30th, 2008 at 9:19 pm

    Don’t be surprised if the pity votes for Brooke and Jason really hurt David Cook. I’m sure plenty of people spent their time bailing Jason and Brooke out and assumed David C. would be fine, but assuming doesn’t get him votes. This will be interesting. I really hope Brooke goes.

    Adios Brookie!
