Who will be the runner-up on American Idol this year?

Settled as David Archuleta

Background: As of today, there are 9 left to compete. One will go tonight and others will go in the next few weeks. Many are picking their winners, but who will get the 'famed' title as runner-up. Quite often the runner-up or one of the other 'losers' become more successful than the winners. So who will go home in tears on that final night?

Set to close in advance of the final few shows, so get your guessing caps on!

Settlement details:As reported by a major mainstream news source.

Hi Bear. I think it's really funny to see Michael Johns sitting at 9% since he has been voted off already. I couldn't imagine a loosing slot in your DJIA questions sitting at 9% for 5 days. Keep up the good work.
