Imagine; someone who can actually sing (apologies to the pride of Richardson, the Simpson girls) getting a shot. Hell, this Arlington dude made David Hasslehoff more animated than that Las Vegas cheeseburger. He already gets my future-fan vote, but can he get me Jerry Springer's autograph?

Cas just blows my mind. My opinion , You can go all the way & win! I too was blown away by your rendition of "Walking On The Moon" and, like Piers, I feel you did a much better job than "Sting" when you played the tune. Revert back to something along those lines and Blow the U.S. away again and again. I've used all 10 of my votes for you everytime I've voted. Vote for "Cas Haley" America he deserves it!!!!
