A total shock, but right decision for 'Idol' winner

On the homepage of Dial Idol, the vote-predicting Web site stresses that it has "accurately predicted the winner of every 'American Idol' season it has covered." So when they predicted Kris would win by a very slim margin, I had my doubts.

Well, Dial Idol can breathe a sigh of relief, because it got it right once again.

At the beginning of the competition, no one knew who Kris was. When he made the Top 13, people were surprised. Sure, he was cute, but did he have the talent?

Throughout the season, Kris proved he did and I believe America got it right this time, despite the producers' attempts to sway it otherwise.

I wish the best to Adam Lambert, but I will be spending my money on Kris Allen's albums. Hail to the "Idol" victor!
