Others that impressed:
Anthony Federov (has Clay Aiken factor, definite final 24)
Amanda Avila (good looks plus good voice give her a nod)
David Brown (smoothest performance, definite top 12)
Anwar Robinson (polished and classy, top 12 serious contender)
Vonzell Solomon (another seeming lock for the top 12)
Mario Vazquez (suprisingly smooth, holds up the latino contingent)
Janay Castine (whoa, this young Southerner blew me away in her few seconds)
Did not impress:
Carrie Underwood (great story, but a claimer in a graded stakes race)
Nadia Turner (underwhelmed from before, but still a contender)
Constanin Marketis (has the look, but fails to stand out)
Mikalah Gordon (Fran Drescher's niece is an embarrassment to my hometown)
Marlea Stroman (disappointed she quit, but I wouldn't have been surprised with a no anyway)
Tomorrow night look for:
Dezmond Meeks
Elizabeth Pha
Sharon Galvez
All advanced but were not shown.

Word is Osborne Smith, Jr. is still in the competition, although we haven't seen him yet.
The young girl Janay Castine continues to impress me. She kinda has that Tatyana Ali look and is serious about improving. She might be a teen wild card this year.
Vonzell
Travis Tucker
David Brown
Anwar
all are solid choice right now.
Faith Gatewood impressed me in her debut last night, and Jaclyn Crum hit a home run with zero preparation I thought.
