FRAUD AT POLLS: I Fail to Win American Idol as a Write-in Candidate

The fix was in from the beginning

For the fourth time in as many years, I failed to win American Idol as a write-in candidate.  Executives at FreeMantle Media, the company that distributes the show, refused to recognize my candidacy and failed to report the votes I received.  This morning, they did not return my phone calls.  My guess is that I probably got around a million votes.  Some guy named Phillip Wilson Phillips won.  I didn't get sh*t.
