American Idol David Cook: Did America get it right?

David Cook is now popular and favored top American Idol. He delivered genius performance on American Idol and he's absolutely the most creative and talented, both as musician and as a singer. I was happy for David Cook when he was announced the new American Idol.

I agree... from this specific bunch of finalists, David Cook was far and away the best vocal artist. I think one or two of the others could evoke as much if not more fandom, but none of them could touch Cook on qualitative grounds.
