ONE NIGHT ONLY: Tonight's Idol results show reminds us that this is a voting competition, not a singing competition, and it's not enough to not just be the least-sucky performer of the lot. You have to persuade people to support you with their phone calls, and every week matters. Indeed, the surprising third member of the bottom three has some serious pondering to do, but I believe "Jolene" is within his/her bailiwick, assuming David Cook doesn't have dibs on covering the White Stripes cover of it.

Was tonight's ouster premature? Yes. Did we lose the singer who might have won the competition? No. But am I disappointed? Of course.
