Forget about all the votes he has been getting. That does not count in my eyes. It does not count because in this particular case, people are voting from their hearts but they seldom use their brain. Let me ask you a question. Lets suppose this Idol thing had a completely different format. People can't vote. Participants performances were judged by a very honest, credible group of judges. Now I want to know...do truly believe that Prashant would be standing in a position that he is in now? I highly doubt it. Prashant is still in the show because he is getting votes from people like you who vote for him relentlessly. I admire your admiration for him but you should learn to accept that not everyone is in the same boat.
