Tomorrow is the first competition of the Final 12 women. Coming into it, I am partial to Mandisa. She has a great voice and is an inspiration to all women who don't have a supermodel's figure but have talent and confidence to make up for it.
I also like Lisa Tucker. What poise and maturity for a mere child of 16. To look and listen, it's hard to remember she's one of the youngest in the competition. And I don't see her folding to any pressure.
