		<description>I think it was a big hype as it should be. The record industry needs new faces and David Cook has the potential to become a "world" star. At least I got a lot of new visitors on my David Cook Fan Page from Asia and around the world are the responses really great. I think he is not a one-hit wonder.
Congratulation David Cook and good luck with your new record</description>

		<description>Well, i guess im the only david a. fan here. Don't get me wrong david cook is very very great and i'll have to agree with david a., Cook deserved the win, not becaues hes better though, but mainly because he is 110% fully focused on his music career where as david a. has said that he still wants to continue school and focus on that to get it out of the way, but i DONT think he is to young, thats a bad way to word it. He is very mature for his age and there are many many young artist out there that are younger than him and are making everything out of it with no problems. If david a. would have won to me it would have been a waste in a way sence he wouldnt do much right away with a music career unless of course he had a plan B for winning. Anways Congradulations David Cook, and Great job david for sure you will both do great and i will buy your ablums.</description>

		<description>I am a loing term Idol fan, and I believe that both Davids deserved to be there last night, were the best, were nice and genuine people. I agree that DA is a little young to make the most of the opportunity, despite his wonderful singing voice. They will probably both sel albums. I have never seen an idol share his limelight like that, and I believe that shows what an extraordinary young man he is. I am so pleased he won, he gave me many weeks of enjoyment and a whole playlist of fabulous songs to listen to. I hope he gets an album out quickly.</description>

		<description>It was very exciting that David Cook won american idol. He done a very good job and will represent american idol well. David A was very talented and done a excellent job. they are the two that should have been standing there at the end of the season. David A is still young and the only reason i was  pulling and wanting David Cook to win is david a is not yet mature enough to handle this type of winning. hes young and i am afraid that the type of performing and songs that david would do would not been the ones he wanted but the ones of others and there dreams. David A will do well. David Cook will have a good career start. American Idol has started a many contestant to there goals and dreams for them.</description>

		<description>WOW, This season of American Idol was absolutely awesome and to be topped off with last nights final show of the season it was INCREDIBLE!!! I had been cheering for David Cook all along yet there were sooo many great contestants. I believed from the final 6 on it would be David C. and David A. in the final 2. David A has an awesome voice and ability and will go far if he chooses. David Cook won my heart. I was born and raised in Topeka, Kansas and hadn't heard that David C was from Kansas City until last week. I told my mom no wonder I had liked him, he's got that mid-west charisma. I so hope that he will be greatly blessed in his endeavors. May God continue Blessing YOU David Cook!! You were WONDERFUL!</description>

		<description>I wish it could've been a tie cause both finalists offer something different.  David A. has a beautiful voice, but he's limited to what he sings.  David C. has a good voice but is more versatile.  His version of Billy Jean should be recorded on his CD. It was awesome!
I wish them both successful careers.  
David Cook is such a gentleman to give credit to the other   contestants.  He has a lot of class, which others in the past have lacked.  I thought it was awesome when he applauded David A. as he walked off the stage.  No one has ever done that, that I can remember.
Congrats to David C.  Good job!  Congrats to David A, too.</description>
