Can this really be happening? Can it be true? Is Sanjaya's reign really over????

YAHOOOOOOOOO!!!! 

I am on Cloud 9 after the results of tonight's show. There was a scary moment as I was clutching my pillow and bracing to see Lakisha leave FAR too soon. And then the heavens opened up and Sanjaya was sent packing. At last! Perhaps now we can get back to the business of singing. 

Props to Melinda for not caving to Ryan's request to pick which group was safe. It was cleary too difficult to call. Sitting in the middle of the floor was not only smart, but it was endearing. 

It was a surprise to see Blake in the bottom three. Maybe Chris's shout out to Virginia Tech did win him some much-needed votes. For both Blake and Lakisha, this was a good wake up call. From here on out, your song choices and delivery much be spot on. Any slips now and you earn your own ticket home...
