Did We Overdo The David Archuleta Thing A Little?

It’s been seven hours and fifteen days since America took its love away from David Archuleta, deciding in a 12 million vote landslide that he is NOT their new American Idol. We spent most of yesterday crying out to heaven asking God why bad things happen to good people like our little Lambchop who deserves only to exist on a cloud where he can sing with the other cherubs. And after much soul searching, as is want to happen during dark times like these, we think we figured it out. Could we (and by, “we”, we mean the media of which we are a reluctant member), have hammered his lovableness away a little too hard? Could we have been a little too biased, thus turning the people against him and towards underdog David Cook? Did we (gasp) kill Our Chuleta? (Or was it all his evil stagedad Jeff’s fault? That’s Daniel’s theory.) Give it to us straight in the comments, peeps.

Oh…did you guy like David Archuleta, or something?

El Chuletito started off like some other-wordly angel, and then seemed to morph into a Mormon (he was a morphmon) with a freakazoid father. Part of the interest of the show is watching the talent grow during the weeks, and as much as I wish it were different (seeing as how I loved me my little porkchop from the beginning) he just didn’t really seem to progress that much. Plus, it looked like he might have a coronary if he did any more winning (he did look ready to pass out when Simon gave him that verbal blowjob on the last Tuesday)…so maybe America didn’t want him to die from overexcitement.

Actually, the real reason he lost is because you spelled the word “want” instead of “wont” in the third sentence. It’s “wont to happen,” otherwise-way-too-smart ladies.
