Katie vs. Taylor

The 33% three way split between Katie, Taylor and Elliott was remarkable. That's 17 million votes each and glory or disaster was only measured in the thousands. While I expected Elliott to go the closeness was a surprise - he was a stellar participant and no doubt he will do just fine for himself.

Much as I adore Katie I have to be honest and say that on the basis of the competition so far Taylor deserves to win. When he's in his Joe Cocker, Bruce Springstein, Doobie Brths zone he is terrific.
