When did American Idol become a talent show? It was created and should remain, first and foremost, a SINGING competition. For Jason Castro to be put into the same league as Carly Smithson, Syesha Mercado, David Archuleta, and David Cook is a well played joke. Just because he can play the guitar doesn't mean he qualifies. And what infuriates me the most is his "Who cares?" attitude whenever he gets a bad comment or comes close to being booted off. He doesn't take the competition seriously, he's a joke to the American Idol name, and, let's face it, he's Sanjaya with a guitar and dreads. For anyone to vote on him based on his "charm" and "good looks" and his "soft and pleasant voice" is like wearing poop-scented perfume. Only one means damage to the nose and the other - damage to the ears.
