Could Dark Horse Kris Allen Win American Idol?

So it's down to three and American Idol handicappers are predicting that tonight, Danny Gokey will be out and the final two contenders will be Kris Allen and Adam Lambert will be dueling it out for the Idol title.
So here's the thing: It's all but been declared that Lambert will take home the win, but suddenly, Kris Allen is emerging as somewhat of a dark horse. He has this "aww shucks" sort of air about him as well as this sideways gape when he sings that chicks dig. And guess whose doing all the voting, folks? Fourteen-year-old chicks who have a thing for this acoustic guitar playing young man. Further, judges warned last night to beware of the "in-the-bag" factor. When everyone is under the assumption that someone will win, they're less inclined to vote.
Allen's performances last night were very strong, earning rave reviews for performing Kanye West's Heartless. And the guy who seemingly flew under the radar at the beginning of the show, is now finding his footing when he needs to the most.
However, there is no denying the power of Adam Lambert, who blew judges away last night with U2's "One" as well as Aerosmith's Cryin'. Lambert, although criticized by some (see: Bill O'Reilly) for his over-the-top style and stage prescense, he is the most confident, original and vocally gifted performer to hit the American Idol stage. Who do you think will win American Idol?

Adam is AMAZING@! He is so talented and has entertained us all season. He has earned the Idol crown. Vote Adam@! I am also proud of Adam because I work for the VA and while Adam was home he went to Miramar to sing for the troops and their families. He also visited the kids at his high school drama and signing departments and went back to the performing arts center where he started performing. He is truly the most talented and should win American Idol Vote Adam!
Kris Allen and Danny Gokey should definitely be in the finale together. Adam Lambert can sing, but he isn't nearly as versatile as either one of these contestants. Kris and Danny, although they didn't enjoy some of the genres, performed strong performances no matter what the theme was. Adam Lambert however, seems to only be able to sing one genre of music…..rock and roll. That's not bad, it's just that as far as musical talent goes, Danny and Kris have the top. Does anyone remember country week?….Might I remind you of Ring of Fire, which he completely changed from country to rock. So even though he got credit for sing a country SONG, did he really sing country MUSIC? That is the question.
Vote for Adam!!! Please!!! No one deserves it more than him!!!
Adam, God Bless you!!! You are the best!!! And no matter what, keep on singing. We love you!!! Your Fans!!!
I absolutly adore Kris! Not only is he cute, but he has a great voice and is not all cockey and arrogant. (cough, cough, ADAM) My theory is that since Danny's gone, all of his fans will vote for Kris (because none of them will like Adam) and Kris will win! It really annoys me that the judges are so biased towards Adam! He screams every song is honestly, is just plain freaky! Imagine what kind of songs would be on his album… ugh.
kris will win hands down
if only one million votes separated kris allen and adam lambert, the danny gokey fans will push kris to victory
if adam wins, it will prove that the show is rigged
