Tonight, after more than 47 million votes, we learned who will compete in the finals on season nine of 'American Idol.' At one point or another in the season, each of the contestants, Lee DeWyze, Crystal Bowersox, and Casey James, seemed as though they had what it takes to become an 'American Idol.' Each has shown flashes of brilliance throughout the season and they seem to be the show's three most marketable contestants. In coming down to it, only two could make it to the finals and one had to be eliminated on tonight's results show.
