It really doesn't matter if picks are made now or next week after the performances. America's minds area already made - the final 2 will be Lee (who has never been in the bottom two) and Crystal (who will inherit Mike's votes).
What happened this past week is that Aaron's cat-lady votes went to Casey.

American Idol Review: Top 9
Didi actually got eliminated last week? Dam, Tim Urban is unbreakable. My record just got a bit closer toward .500 -- 7-6 in picks this season.
Top performances: Crystal Bowersox, Lee DeWyze, Casey James.
Biggest Surprise = none really. Biggest Disappointments = Siobhan Magnus...I no longer expect Andrew to be great, so he can't disappoint me when he's average.
Random notes
- Thank god Siobhan didn't scream at the end of the song. She seems to be in the works of an Adam Lambert 2-week strategy. Week 1 of the set: sing a loud and powerful song; week 2 of the set: sing a soft song. Adam did this last year by going Ring of Fire (loud) --> Tracks of My Tears (soft) --> Play That Funky Music (loud) --> Mad World (soft).
- Most hilarious moment of the night was when the bagpiper started walking down the stairs during Lee's performance.

The 1 who will get chopped by way of America's axe is noted in RED below. The 1 who should get chopped, based on performance, is noted in PURPLE.
Katie Stevens Although her performance last night was pretty good, I'm afraid she doesn't have a strong fan base and will not be in the competition after tonight.
Aaron Kelly He had the worst performance of the night, but I think he has more voting fans than Katie Stevens. If I had to bet who his fan base is made up of, I would describe the aunt who showers you with hugs and kisses at every family gathering...the one who reminds you of "how cute you are and how much you've grown since the last time you've seen them." And there are a lot of these people in America.
