I do not know about this best in 5-10 years statement. Kelly Clarkson, Carrie Underwood, Chris Daughtry, Jordan Sparks, and any number of current artists who have made it without the
American Idol springboard to fame and fortune seem like better artists. I think that Allison Iraheta's career will have longer legs than that of Adam Lambert's if she has the right songs and handlers.
Adam Lambert has been extremely smart with his presentation and song choice the past few weeks. The same cannot really be said of Allison Iraheta and some of the other former front runners on AI this season.
Here is a link to some of the top performances by former
American Idol contestants.

Suppose I would rather hear Adam Lambert though than Lady Gaga, Flo Rida, Kellie Pickler, and some of the other recent artists
American Idol has had on this season during the elimination shows.
