# What do you think gives you the edge in this competition?

I don't know if I have one, but I know that nobody can say they've worked harder for this or have wanted it more than me.

i know everyone is probably getting annoyed with this topic, but i hope that quote puts an end to the whole "david will be better off not winning" speculation.
everyone was too busy thinking about themselves and what they want from david, and they weren't thinking about what he wants.

mr david wants this more than anything
thats why im voting for him
hes the most amazing one on the show

Wow, what a great quote! Thanks for posting this, lyndsey. You're right... this should put a rest to this debate once and for all.

That's so going in my sig, right now.

Which is why I'm voting my bum off this week!

Amazing quote, thank you for sharing it. Just something else to make me feel good about this week.

Looks like Sleela and I had the same idea I think everyone should use that in their sigs, just as a reminder of how hard we need to vote this week

Well lets make it happen Thanks for the quote!

Haven't we beat this topic into the ground?? David wants it, he is truly the only one who deserves to win, so let's just vote until he gets the crown!

excellent quote!!

I've added it to my signature in a few forums......getting the message across!

Thanks for the link, Lyndsey!

True, Cookey wants it, so we have to make it happen for him. This quote is also now included in my siggy, to remind all to vote for him.

Thank you so much for this. It's just proof of what i've been saying for weeks. David truly wants this, and i plan on voting like a madwoman to help get him there.

good posting!
i just worried if ppl think that dc is better if he doesn't win or something which have the same conclusion=Don't vote for him
and now, I think we're all can see that dc wants to win and we'll help him with always keep VOTING!!!!

I LOVE this quote. Thank you!

David Cook FTW!

I just added his quote to my signature.. thanks for the great idea!

Just one more way to show our support!!!

This is what I've known all along too. I'll be a madwoman with you on Tuesday night.

Nice post! Thanks... is so true that DC wants this so bad! ..so people keep on voting him!

David doesn't strike me as the type of person to do anything half assed especially where his music is concerned. It seems to me for him to be in this competition, he is going to give a 110% of himself and his art. I think it shows every time he sings.. every look he gives.. every smile he smiles.. every time he is on that stage, we are witnessing someone dedicated to their craft and making each song sound as wonderful as possible.

Having said that, I'm not trying to say anything bad about any of the others but this is just how I view it.. Syeisha is good but she should stick to Broadway musicals.. Jason.. God love him.. he needs to first cut that hair and then he would be cute.. but as far as his music career goes, I could see him going places but he isn't as good as I think the American Idol should be.. and then we have little Archie.. he has a nice voice and at times, I even really enjoy his performances but he is so young and I think that maturity wise, he wasn't ready for this..

Anway, those are my thoughts.. I want David C to win and I'm going to dial until my fingers fall off if I have to.

I think a lot of us should put it in our siggys to get the message out there...some people seem to think he doesn't care if he wins or not...well here's proof that he DOES want to win! and duhh he deserves it so let's make it happen wordnerds! VOTE VOTE VOTE!

Maybe everyone AT LEAST NOW understands that DAVID COOK WANTS TO WIN and forget these ''dont vote'' things, please.

ahh yay.
new trends.
*runs off to go edit her sig*

aw. i know i saw that before.

I just hope Cookie fans stop throwing votes to Jason because they feel bad that Paula was an idiot. That is not David's fault, Jason has done really well to make top 4, and now is not the time to split votes!!!

VOTE FOR DAVID COOK AND ONLY DAVID COOK!

Oh, yeah, and vote LOTS!!!

trying out new sig that is the same as everyone else...

when i saw that video and heard what DC said, i was at lost for words and it got me so worried at the same time because i know how people don't want to vote for him because of the contracts and what not.

i'm going to vote my ass off this week, he NEEDS to stay in this competition and he NEEDS to win the whole thing!

thanks for bring this up lyndsey

well said mr. cook, we'll always support you

We will always support him and see that his desire to win AI comes happens.
