Racist?

Apparently Elton John has come out questioning last week's American Idol results and suggesting that there is some aspect of racism to the voting. Uh, did he happen to see last year's winner?

I don't agree with last week's results either - as I previously stated, America must HATE John Stevens to keep forcing him to go back up and embarrass himself week after week. But I don't think racism is the reason - could it just be American Stupidity? If we keep sticking ourselves with no-talent finalists, the show is going to lose its luster even more quickly than expected.

But Simon Cowell did have the quote of the night (and I paraphrase):

"You and Latin music go together like ice cream and onions."
