More people liked her than liked Bo.....but Bo came in 2nd, which is no small accomplishment.
you're absolutely right, America chose her, but someone else (I think KRL) made the point that the people that actually call in are more likely not to vote for the long-haired "rocker".

Like I said, I saw the show twice this season, but I didn't take it seriously enough to actually call and vote. So I guess that takes away my right to bitch about what I feel is a dumb choice.

But it's just funny to me when country fans defend a lot of these artists who are so obviously pop music. I listen to a wide variety of music and a lot of times I'll hear an r&b artist, a pop artist and a country artist all singing the same fucking song, but one with a "country" arrangement, one with the r&b arrangement and one with a pop arrangement. And they were all written by the same top 40 songwriter in Los Angeles. But yea, it's not pop music.
