And at this point that's even worse from a survival standpoint.. She won't get any sympathy votes for not reaching her potential, the judge's lukewarm comments won't inspire any voting, she seems likable enough but is too low key to fire up support, and the VFTW people won't bother with her. Please note how her thread has easily the fewest comments of anybody in the top 13. She's forgettable. Her only pluses are hispanic support and a really nice outfit and makeup job tonight. It's not enough.

I kind of hope she stays even though she sucked, I'd like a good rendition of Guantanamera or at least a song entirely in Spanish. I think that would be cool.

Andrew had a modest fanbase going into Idol with already being popular on youtube, I'm pretty sure that's what got him farther than he should've gone.

I don't think his being hispanic had much to do with it.

AMT <3 I actually love that song a lot, but it just wasn't good yo. And if she thought she was going to win over Selena fans with that, oops.

If McDonald's suddenly starting offering "authentic tacos," to put it in perspective, most people who enjoy tacos in their native culture would likely say, "Why would I need to go there when we have better, more authentic tacos at the taqueria down the street." There are enough singing competitions on Spanish Language TV that there is no huge gap that Idol can fill. If they had something different, something transcendent, it would be a different story; but Karen is nothing new.
