Chris is more of a "band" guy more than a solo artist.

Elliot is a visually a soloist and has a nice voice overall, but when he carries a note he sounds like a sheep and damn I've never seen a white boy stick his lips out so far.

Taylor has a great voice but damn - he looks like he's havin seizures when he sings/dances - that appeal wears off quick and I'd hate to be the director on one of his videos contantly repeating "damn dude - be still and just sing"!

Kathreen has it all. Looks, body, voice, appeal. Her ROI is much higher than the others and is probably going to get the nod.

I like all of the final 4 so no matter who gets booted - I hate to see em' go.

Least that's what I think
