Really surprised that Syesha Mercado was in the bottom three this week. She must not have developed a loyal fan base like many of the others who IMHO have far less talent than she does. Call that the Taylor Hicks phenomenon. The Soul Patrol (Taylor Hicks' die hard fans) kind of took over Season 5 on American Idol. Liked Katherine McPhee, Elliott Yamin, Chris Daughtry, Paris Bennett and Kellie Pickler more than Taylor Hicks on AI5.
