Is Idol trying to become X-Factor and why?

Really...AI.....REALLY?

Does Idol have to take a page from the failed X-Factor and "reinstate a contestant who was previously eliminated?

Are we going to have the same staged drama from AI that we got from X-factor. Is Steven Tyler going to drive to the guys house and tell him that he was been reinstated?

I swear...if the "eliminated" contestant goes on to "win" like the staged and scripted X-factor season....then this is truly the end of American Idol.

If they should have reinstated anyone it should have been Travis Orlando, especially looking at the crop of the top 12 guys.
