Haley did look shell shocked but recovered quickly.

Don't like Haley. Think Scotty will win it all, but glad Lauren beat out Haley.

Yeah, she's doing well now. Easy to predict the winner now. Well, I assume it is, but I've been wrong before!

Well, it isn't a tiara but I don't know what to call it. It's a pretty, sparkly headband sort of thing. Oh gawd, she's singing Benny and the Jets. ick

Kudos to Haley, she finished her song in the audience with her parents.

If you look where the majority of votes come from for the show, it's the South. Then add in the teen vote, and it was easy to see who the final 2 would be.

OK...........I'm pissed off! Let's just re-name this show: "Teenager Country Idol"........ I mean, James & Haley are Rock musicians...and very good ones at that! I'm wanting Scotty for the win now!

I've been a Lauren fan since the auditions. She's young, and needs to get over her nerves but of all of them I think she has "the whole package". Cute personality, pretty and a great natural voice. Liked Haley somewhat early on, but when Pia was voted off and everyone was upset, shocked, etc. Haley stood on the stage with a smile on her face. Left a bad impression on me and could never look beyond that the rest of the season.

Wow..2 teeners who are still in high school going for the win in AI. They kids are too young to grasp what is happening to them. I think they should change the age limit to 17 and have finished school. Let them get a little life experience under their belts before all this "fame and glory"! Scotty will win it all and he is just a little boy emotionally.

You know why I want Scotty to win? His Dad singing in the audience! Scotty's Dad is HOT! Lauren is just not ready.............she doesn't take critisism well, & she really doesn't take well to rejection! And......this is a big AND! I actually feel like Lauren feels "entitiled" (kinda like, she's been spoiled all of her life). Sorry, I don't get on the train!

Well I guess we'll be watching American Idol Country style for the finale next week. Was really wanting some variety, it's going to be boring. I like both Scotty and Lauren but their singing has been boring compared to Haley and James.

To me, the issue is the fame machine that is Idol that chews up people and spits them out. I don't think that many are ready for it. I think James would have been hurt emotionally by the Idol ride, he seems a bit more vulnerable to that and I think Lauren is just not ready even close, if she wins it will be a very rough ride. Granted the industry is not as hard on the women, but still, Idol has lost some luster. As for Scotty winning, he already has a target painted on his back. When Hailey lost, well, you should believe you can make it, she did recover quickly, something I don't see that Lauren would have done. If Scotty wins, I think we will have the first contestant meltdown.

That's an extremely disappointing result. Not that I dislike either Lauren or Scotty. It's just that they are so similar to each other in style, youth and demeanour. Haley leaving takes the life out of the show. She was having so much fun and she provided so much more energy and enthusiasm. Scotty is on cruise control for the win and Lauren generally looks petrified. Not good.

I want to be Haley when I grow up. I love this girl's spirit and loved her exit song performance. Haley is the BEE KNEES!!

What Jimmer said. I feel very lukewarm about it. Not sour grapes or anything, just no excitement at all in these 2.
