There are only two other nominees for this category. Why not list them as well instead of just "someone else"? A question regarding vice presidential nominees was voided some time ago, because the category editor felt that it was missing some selections that should be there, and that was just projection. It seems that the other two nominees should atleast be mentioned so that people can make an educated prediction. So, for those who are wondering, "someone else" would either be Keith Urban or George Strait. In addition to being last year's winner, Brad Paisley received 4 nominations (I believe this puts him third in the number of nominations).

Woohoo! Brad Paisley! Wish I'd waited a bit to pick him though.
