This poll is stupid. Putting Blake, a terrible non-singer against Clay Aiken, the best voice on Idol to date, is just plain stupid.

The last time I voted in a poll at this place, the results were not going the way the site wanted and "SURPRISE" they results were changed...really sad!!

Don't expect lots of votes....this was discussed a lot and you reputation is not very good!!

Think I know where thiss coming from.. It started when their beloved Aiken didn't win the "Don't Let The Sun Go Down On Me" poll instead it went to Archuleta...

Don't think the reputation of this blog got affected by Aiken not winning the polls here. Ha ha... Maybe just with the sore losers who always think their Idols are the best...

Oh......I remember when the numbers got changed. If a blog is going to do that, they should be more careful. Lots of people were talking about it. It was actually rather funny.

katy.....I don't remember it being Don't Let The Sun Go Down, but I could be wrong........but the results had nothing to do with jealousy...it was really blatant and fans of lots of people were commenting about it!!

I remember now! They wanted Lambert to win and kept changing the results. Wasn't it Aiken who beat him fist and then David A? and both of these results got changed so Lambert could win.

No, it wasn't the poll against David Archuleta, this was about who got the first 20,000 votes would win, Clay won, and then the rules changed to 30,000 votes instead. Fans stopped voting then. This is also a stupid poll, pairing Clay, the BEST male voice on Idol with Blake, I won't waste my time on this poll. Lambert can have it, it won't mean anything.

Guys, for the record I NEVER set rules with my polls except the closing date - yes, it's ALL time-based. The site NEVER had a rule about "whoever gets to 20,000 votes first wins". Go and look around the site. It NEVER even got a total of 20,000 votes in a single poll.

Also, the polls the site conducts aren't being changed. Believe what you want but I seriously wouldn't even dare to risk the blog's reputation for a FUN meaningless poll. Yes, I'm pretty aware that these polls doesn't mean anything and are practically pointless, but the blog and it's visitors are just having fun because the next season is still 4 months away. That's it.

Oh, and the pairing like one commenter said is random. So, there's no point of putting down Blake Lewis just because he's being paired up with Clay Aiken. Thank you very much.

I was there. I watched the numbers change. Clay was ahead of Adam and....then....the poll went down and came back up with numbers removed from Clay's totals. This put him behind Adam. All the while this site got major hits from fans while we all looked at the Adam pictures all over the screen. AND, this site did have a paragraph at the top of the page stating that 20,000 votes WAS the magic number. Clay Aiken was ahead of Adam Lambert soTHEN it became 30,000. I mean we could not have Clay beat Adam. I don't care if Adam beats Clay in any poll if the poll is legit. No legit poll here.

Big discussions on Clay (and other idol) board. SO many fans will not be back here. Just sayin'

Oh...after the poll really finally 'closed' the numbers continued to change. Clay actually lost votes after the poll closed. WTF? Posting here, in comments, is my one and only hit this site will ever get from me again. Thank you very much. Buh Bye.

Anonymous: Again, look around the site and there's NO SINGLE POLL in this blog that reached 30,000 votes. NO POLL even reached 20,000 votes, so I don't know what you're talking about.

Also, in this blog, the only poll where Clay and Adam were both included was in the "Favorite Runner-Up" poll. Adam didn't even come close to Clay. Adam's votes were even lower than McPhee's.

Now, if many fans will not be back in this blog, I can't do anything about it. It's your own choice and I don't want to force anyone to visit the blog. :)
