Man, was this waaay overdue. I agree that based on the performances, both Kim and Josh deserved bottom two. Since Kim has shown flashes of brilliance, she deserved to stay and at least live to compete another day. I'm glad it did not happen as I had feared it might, but I think FOX doesn't want to see no girls in the finals, either. That said, I think the best two -- Ruben and whoever-- will be left.
With regard to the possibility of two black finalists, as someone brought up, what's the big deal? We live in the 21st century, and if you're good, you deserve to be there, period. I think, or would hope anyway, that most people recognize this. If someone thinks the dorky white guy deserves to be there based on talent, then he does. Ruben will win. Mark my words. He deserves to.
A short comment about Josh's swan song. When he brought his cute little baby on stage, all that was missing was him wrapping himself in the flag. He far exceeded his shelf life in the competition for the very reason that he was a marine, a "good guy" and a loving husband and daddy.
I couldn't help but say to my wife when Josh started singing to his little girl and she started bawling, "see, Josh, your daughter, like the rest of America that is not tone-deaf, thinks you suck, too -- now go home." That was easily the most funny moment of last night's show.
